We know that plastic bags among other trash left on the streets ends up in our ocean! Together we can make a difference towards clean water! Learn simple steps you can take to protect our ocean at LAstormwater.info
Great video. and some great shots in this. Any chance you could publish under a "Creative Commons" license, that way we can re-edit and use with campaigns abroad? (I'm based in Indonesia) Of course, we would credit PlasticPollution for the footage. thanks.
a small ordinary item such as a single use plastic straw is replaced with reusable, and the thought process continues to other reusable items. The idea grows and the need for single use plastics might be eliminated in time. I'm hoping there is time. reuse reuse reuse
Hi. I just learned that thosepostal white plastic postal bins are being disposed of - NOT recycled - because " there aren't any 'recyclers' that will take them." If you know of any recyclers who can, please tell them to contact the USPS (start with Long Beach, CA 90809) Also - check LB's Press Telegram to read about a csulb professor finding a link between plastic and Alzheimers and Autism!
Ocean Voyage Institute is making a HUGE effort to clean up this mess. They are currently raising funds to go the North Pacific Gyre this summer with a team of volunteers to collect the plastic and trash that has accumulated there, as well as researching environmentally friendly ways to dispose of it. Please help save our oceans and the wildlife that live there by googling “dream sail raffle” and visiting our website, as well as posting it on your pages!
So harp on the FDA and USDA about it. I wouldn't mind having my meat purchases wrapped in butcher paper instead of 2 or 3 layers of cling wrap, or reusing my own storage containers, but there are "health" regulations that prevent that.
And address the chemicals that Monsanto pushes on farmers that get into the water as well.
Government laws have done this not just the "consumers".
