The future of plastic – keep it out of our oceans! A light but tough lesson on the environmental impact of plastic..
However, years later, Mr. McGuire might have been referring to the fact that plastic takes practically forever to go away! Petroleum-based plastics are non-biodegradable and are accumulating in our oceans, and in the bellies of birds and fish. Most of its coming from us, not from ships or the fishing industry. It’s coming from land and washing down our water sheds.
What to do? Minimize your plastic purchasing and reuse plastic whenever and however you can. Give it a useful future.
P.S. Was Mr. Maguire the first person to say Enough Said?
Anyway, plastic = bad. Enough said.
