  • fuck it, i drive a caddy that has 2 miles per the gallon and i dont recycle, i toss out all my plastic bottles on the side of the road

  • And what do you think all that plastic does in the environment and food and water you drink? For one It releases estrogen which causes cancers and other mutations.It's not just the whale that gets hurt by this product.

  • 63 dislikes?  Who are you people?

  • Aww

  • truth is only the beginning, 1.5 sounds like a conservative estimate to me.

  • AND THE TRUTH SHALL SET US FREE

  • I LITTER DAILY

    PROBLEM WORLD?

  • @NitroReviews Yes.

  • Better yet, where the hell is Handcock to throw him off that junk. fucking youtube for recommending this waste of time

  • hahahah. he got beached on plastic. fucking environmentalists. To bad poor old george carlin isn't around anymore.

  • PLASTIC WILL RISE TO THE TOAP OF THE FOAD CHAIN

  • Only ignorant people blame the product ( bottles) when it is the user's fault.

    How can we blame bottles and not blame guns, cars and everything else that has an effect on the environment.

    What we should be looking at is better ways to encourage more recycling, as all plastic bottles are recyclable and are the safest and healthiest most convenient way to transport food and beverage.

  • @SpeakingSpirit It is the plastic. it should not be used as much as it is . it does not feed any animal or plant. so it is the plastic. Glass will crush down into its self (sand) wood and paper can feed an animal. and I don't know about you but people may put stuff in bottles that they should not .so is the recycled bottle really safe?Plastic is the problem. and on I am not an eco nut just some one that is not following the herd thinking if we just recycle thing will be ok. it won't.

  • .......Sad

  • wow

  • :( maldito mundo, fuck

  • @BestofYTChannel thanks so much for the selection + posting in your channel! We worked with LAIKA to create the ad for Surfrider, + very much appreciate being honored in this way.

  • « Continent » de déchets : À lEst du nouveau

    Il y en avait déjà un, gigantesque, dans le Pacifique nord, entre la Californie et Hawaï. Son existence est connue depuis plusieurs années. Les scientifiques de la Sea Education Association (SEA) en ont hélas découvert un autre fin février dans lAtlantique nord, certes moins étendu mais tout aussi répugnant.

    La suite sur notre groupe Facebook: zegreenweb

  • if you think about it literally, the whale DID rise above the plastic...

  • wow was that real? I am sick and tired of whales being beached by plastic islands.

    I will throw a piece of plastic in the ocean now, just because this vid was so gay

    check out--- penn and teller bullshit recycling--on YT

    explains it all

  • @gynecolog1st Penn & Teller are themselves Bullshit. Recycling is the LAST STEP in a 3 step process. The 1st two, being far more important are, Reduce and Reuse. Recycling is the last resort, when you cant reduce or reuse any more. P&T dont even know the difference between renewable and sustainable resources. They promote inferior products blindly siding against the R R R campaign. They present you with 1/2 truth, and you bought it.

  • replace buying gallon water jugs for life with an aquarain gravity fed water filter for your countertop.....

  • why is everyone hating, im not saying completely get rid of plastics, just for things that are unnecassary. such as plastic bottles, containers, etc. to the idiot who rudely remarked to try and make a car out of lettuce, you sir are destitute. get rid of plastic where it is not necassary. make bottles with glass, containers out of paper/cardboard like we do for eggs, in general just find smarter ways of giving consumers what they want, without killing the earth

  • Of course you can't kill them all right away! But the problem could have been taken care of a long time ago! Check your facts.

    Also, this video of a crock like Al Gore. The Island of "Trash" isn't all plastic like the video depicts. Again, read the facts!

    Al Gore has made millions of dollars off of me and every working American and other countries. Go ahead and red thumb me, I don't give a rats arse. But facts are facts!

  • @dadat30

    You seems to not be able to understand what is artistic creation... it's a pity.

  • That is really really cool!!

  • perfektes Video.. ich denke dem ist nichts hinzuzufügen

  • I have a question.

    What is better to by glass bottles or to by plastic bottles.

    MFG ( my English is not good ^^ )

  • @94chilller

    Mine is worst!

    Without hesitation, glass bottles! (100% and infinitly recyclable)

    The less expensive and the more ecological is, if it's goog in your country, to drink tap water.

  • @94chilller  plastic. it floats

  • this is sad

  • thats so cool!

    'but sad...

  • Why can't we just stop producing plastic bottles?

    There are alternatives on the market such as hemp oil bottles or even glass.

    When I am on the road thirsty, my only choice for water is in a plastic bottle. If that only choice was glass instead of plastic, we wouldn't have this problem.

    The fault lies with the manufacturer, not the consumer.

  • Comment removed

  • Bring Back Glass Bottles!

    If you like Plastic Why isn't Wine and beer Bottled in Plastics Containers? Greed and population control = Plastic Food Containers. Wake -up!

  • I know of 1 whale who killed 3 people already. They seem to be more dangerous than plastic.

  • It is called a Killer whale for a reason. They are not pets.

  • @mo1elftausend: hello... do you know what you're talking about? whales aren't the real issues here.. It's the people like YOU.

  • It's people like you. who take things seriously and want eco-facismn

  • @mo1elftausend - believe me. from the way you act in this video. i'm pretty much sure that you'll do great in destroying your future. thanks for inspiring me more :)

  • excellent reply

  • Nuke the whales, thats all I have to say. Pretty pussy ass species if it succumbs to death by plastic

  • If the stupid Amerikan government made Hemp legal we could make plastic out of it that isnt toxic and biodegrades (ive eaten hemp plastic before with no ill effects). Even communist china has legal hemp!!!

  • @greatestsongsofLIFE hemp will never be legel in the usa , because it can not be controlled by the government , the usa government is all about control of the people , if it became legel some people might make some money , that is tax free , we can't let that happen , LOL what a joke !!! f the usa gov

  • @greatestsongsofLIFE ...except that hemp isn't illegal in the USA...

  • @toadking07 you cant grow it in the USA IDIOT!! But you can import it which is more expensive

  • @greatestsongsofLIFE so you can still get it here, and still make stuff here with it. zero tolerance.

  • plastics are way better then whales

    FACT!

  • Comment removed

  • Simple evolution... the whale will eventually spawn feet. I see nothing wrong here.

  • yo fuck plastics

  • This is why I drink filtered water from my aluminum themas. Enjoy spending a buck per bottle, SUCKERS!

  • You guys should check up on the plastic vortex. It's this huge garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean that's supposedly twice the size of Texas. It's just one big mesh of plastics. Floatin in the sea. Twice the size of Texas. Plastic vortex. Twice Texas. ... HOLY FACKING HELL. LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE DOING TO OUR PLANET. WTEFF GUYS. Seriously, wake the fcuk up! You can't just expect ocean whirlpools to suck it up numbnuts, WE'RE the problem! And we can easily fix it. All you gatta do is recycle!

  • We like think, "put of site, out of mind." So if people don't see it in person, it doesn't exist.

  • fu k you whale

  • haha nicely said

  • That's what the whale gets for showing off.

  • fkin treehuggers........blame Canada

  • How does plastic even get there? i thought the retarted goverment are paying people to monitor the sewage lines leading to the ocean,why is there trash even there?the only way for it to get there is from a sewage drain but it should still be monitored.Why the fuck is sewage even going out to the ocean,what kinda crap is that.they have factories that turn sewage into water why cant they filter it all before dumping it to the ocean. Its all the goverments fault for not doing shit about it,

  • Sadly it still happens. You should look up the great plastic dump, i forget the correct name but if you look it up it is an area of collected garbage due to the currents and you can find peices of plastic in fish, quite gross.

  • @one9898 wow i never knew about that till now,but it makes sense.thats just sad to see,and not much stuff can do that to me,but to see us Human Beings who can easily stop this,it makes me sad that not many people are doing much about it.,and its just getting worse.

  • Agreed. But I guess you can say it's our fault too for not doing anything about the government not doing anything.

  • we shoudn't pass our responsibility to the government. we were given the mind and ability to clean things up. remember, regret is always at the end. try to act as an individual don't wait or look upon what they're gonna do, you might just be dissapointed

  • How can you know that?

  • do whales poop???

  • only on sundays.

  • i'm gonna dump a truckload of plastics in the ocean in spite of this video. thanks for the inspiration!

  • Beautiful made and sadly true :(

  • Who the fuck is putting plastic in the ocean? Me You? no... Who is this video directed at?...Plastic bad, i'm matt damon... go fuck yourself you hippy idiots... it's the corperations governments and banks fucking everything and your telling some soccer mom to cut her soda can rings! Great use of resources you water head morons.

  • What? Do you know where YOU can put your 2-liter bottle!

  • @trlckykid ---Amen

  • it was a joke.. suck my left nut u nerdy ass bastard.. get ur fat ass off ur couch and instead typing a paragraph comment stfu and go save a fkn whale...

  • hahaaha a gingerbread car bumper....lmfao

  • fuck the whales!

  • that included Plankton?

  • Let it be.

  • well even if we stop using it now which will not happen because of oil companies there would still be millions of tons in the ocean from the past 60 years still gotta clean that up

  • I got one word for you: "Plastics".

  • so much drama in 30 seconds...never thought it was possible

  • I thought this was great!

  • i kno right??!?!?!

  • For once, I'm happy to see an ad on Youtube. This has a very good message and is promoting a cause, not a company.

    We all need to reduce, reuse, and recycle, as the saying goes.

  • Ok plastics are a problem, and there are islands of trash in the Pacific, but the video overstates the case a good bit. It just opens the movement to ridicule.

  • Plastics don't kill people, I KILL PEOPLE!!

  • *Sigh. YouTube product placement. I wonder how much this company paid to get on the front page.

  • Plasitcs kill really, people kill get it right.

  • @Maceidio27 --You are right--Its not plastic that kills or plastic that is the enemy, it is the mismanagement of disposal which is caused by greed and ignorance.

  • there are better solutions than plastic. plastic has the longest decomposition time compared to nearly all other materials including glass

  • @dagrome -- umm, yeah ok...when you design a gingerbread car bumper or IV fluid bag made out of lettuce let me know--Ill be the first to give you a gold star.

  • Well still, even if the plastic went in a landfill, it's still hurting our planet

  • @gladfelter17 --drive a car?

  • LMAO, STUPID WHALE.

  • i just wanna know how accurate the number 1.5 million is?

  • Im all for saving the planet but if we dont get our economy together people arent going to give a fuck about eachother....let alone conservation.

  • That's tite I think I need the wallpaper.

  • so do chemtrails

  • Please...Invite Jesus into your heart by watching this video below and then go to John 3:16. Gods Son Jesus.

    watch?v=XcUpq3MHkhs

  • most beaches in venezuela are filled with plastic bottles that washed up.. my girlfriend and me filled like 8 trash bags just from cleaning up this 100yard beach and the next week it was filled again.. that shits is just floating all over the place this commercial isnt far from the truth at all

  • Great video

  • I think we need to rise above niggers first

  • @lordmagicpants more like rise over racisim.

  • @lordmagicpants you are a fucking cunt

  • PLASTIC BEACH

  • plastic is my new enemy.

  • Plastic is your new enemy eh franknzz? Well...throw away your computer--your car-your appliances, a big part of your house, and just about everything else you use each day---you go boy!

  • @WhyNot632

    But what about the whale? I want to help him out. I dont want him to eat my old dishwasher - thats not right.

  • nothing like an eco friendly commercial to get the republicans bitching

  • Researchers are finding plastic particles in the stomachs of fish and the birds are feeding their chicks plastic bottle lids. Corpses of young birds litter the beaches with a pile of lids where their stomach used to be. Plastic is made of petro chemicals, not very biodegradable and toxic. Some areas have way more plastic particles than plankton. This is a huge problem for all.

  • Real talk

  • I heard that there is enough plastic to make a bridge from California to Hawaii, if so let's do it. I don't want to pay for the ships and air plan travel I want to walk through the ocean man!!! oh man that'll be so sweet if they really made a plastic bridge to Hawaii

  • @Jdxthoj Dude I so agree!

  • @JudasPriestFan100 I know solves the whole pollution thing doesn't it. I even heard that India is even trying to make plasic based road(though that's a bad and good Idea considering the climate against the area)

  • Earth is responsible for life, thus Earth needs to be annihilated as well. I'm all for the destruction of earth by any means necessary. Fuck you Earth, in the end you lose.

  • Look's Fun.

  • fuck marine animals who needs em

  • The world to survive dumb ass

  • @ gabrielusa911 please tell me your not that stupid

  • @gabrielusa911 ummm people who eat them. also there are marine animals who eat carbon dioxed witch is posion. so.. marine animals are saving our lives dumb fuck

  • This isn't fraud. This actually is a man made cause unlike global warming . Of course the ad is a huge exaggeration.

  • Where is Al Gore when you need him? Man made global plastic fraud is next!

  • Thats the power of plastic!

  • Not our fault they didnt evolve and come live on land with us

  • fuck. you.

  • The establishment has outlawed biodegradable hemp plastic. Don't come crying to me if your going to block the biodegradable plastic and only make plastic that won't degrade. I am sure the response to this plastic problem will be more taxes when the problem can be solved with less government regulation.

  • Fail Videos!! @ My Channel!!

  • lol!!

  • Plastics make it possible.

  • mad me lol but care no less tosses water bottle at flipper

  • what did i just watch

  • Excellent!! Thanks Wendy for the share.

  • but now how many humans does it kill???

  • Probably a few that we don't really attribute to plastics because of water pollution and air pollution from plants.

    There's a mass of plastic the size of Texas a hundred feet deep or so that floats in a rotating current called the north pacific gyre. It looks like this, yet it's just barely under the water.

  • Alternatives to plastic?

  • The Plastics are like teen royalty

  • Some plastics are good. A lot of it is made from corn.

  • @FumingPoliticalPunk and????We sill throw it into th sea -.-'

  • @wwefanmaster True, but it is not going to last long, unlike other forms of plastic.

  • I think many people really don't know that there are many alternatives to plastics. For example, straws used to be made out of paper and wax, just like the cup that your soda is in at any given fast-food place. If companies switched back to the old-school straw, we could REALLY cut back on plastic waste. Also, I live in a small town, and my local grocery store has swtiched from plastic shopping bags, to biodegradable resin bags. Even Wal-Mart hasn't done that yet...

  • just do what europeans do, Bottles, recycle them. no mess.

  • a bit exaggerated

  • What ever happened to recycling plastic? I don't understand, it says clearly on the bottle that it's going to be recycled! Am I missing something?

  • it says recyclable but that water bottle is never going to be a water bottle again. Plastic is recycled down tto a point where eventually it has to be thrown away. Bottled water will be the end of this planet.

  • @Tjwak99; I really didn't know this. They should make a commercial with better information. It's not a good sign if all the information I get is from youtube comments.

  • whatever happened to not using plastics and using glass bottles that can be cleaned and re used?...more effective. less problems.

  • This is actually a good point.

  • Wooden dildos!

  • whail pwne thats horrible

  • Just throw your garbage in recycling when you goto the beach. A lot of the trash doesn't just come from america. the Japanese are a pretty big offender when it comes to littering the ocean. Signapore has got their shit down though. if you litter you get your ass kicked, literally.

  • Makes me feel bad for buying a 6 pack of plastic bottled coke now. Well, if coca cola commercials weren't so damn good and wasn't on sale at walmart when I bought Final Fantasy 13 on PS3 I wouldn't have bought it. Now I'll go drain them and toss it in the TRASH.

  • Have you ever heard of a thing called cellulose? It's 100% natural, biodegradable, and edible. New studies suggest conventional plastics are very toxic.

  • May even be a cause of breast cancer. BPH plastics are used in some baby bottles. Scientists are on the brink of declaring them extremely toxic to infants.. I bought my grandchildren glass bottles for when they aren't on the boob. Plastic's can be made of way safer stuff like vegetable or hemp oil instead of petro. We could also make all paper from hemp, but we prefer to cut down trees and use more toxic chemicals to process. The petro companys really prefer we keep using their toxic products.

  • Actually it doesn't separate us from animals. Quite the opposite ... have you ever seen a Sea Lion with fishing line slowly cutting into it's neck or a bird with a six-pack ring around its throat? Yeah we have really outdone ourselves with this invention.

  • i have a built it filtered water fountain in my house :D

  • i dont use water bottles anyway i have a water pitcher

  • Conservation can happen overnight.

  • I agree with Jazz, very good work. Thanks Bugsme10 for sharing.

  • Is not the plastics !

    Is too many people on the planet if you want to maintain the environment pristine.

  • @hughtub You use that as an excuse not to think or talk about the real issue that is facing the world: HUNGER.

  • @themarycity Hunger's root problem is parents ***** when they don't have the means to pay for the resulting baby. The root of that is stupidity, thus the root of hunger and poverty is STUPIDITY. Too much moralizing in the world. Let dumb people die off already!

  • So if a person doesn't have the money -- money being the keyword-- to feed a child, they don't deserve the right to bare children? What about the poor regions of the world? If there's no economy or jobs for these citizens to earn decent wages, they are undserving of children? There are children whose parents do all they can to feed them who are still considered starving. Is it stupidity or the basics of human satisfaction? It's our own world economy which casts these people out.

  • @ColonialFifer Nobody has the RIGHT to do anything they won't accept responsibility for, including parents who have litters of babies without the ability to feed them. Those who don't take responsibility for their actions don't deserve freedom (this is why jails exist). The solution to hunger and poverty is sterilization.

  • Yes, lets start the sterilizations with anyone who wants to take rights away from citizens.

  • Yeah, you "have a right to plastic". You assmonkey.

  • I was talking about the right to reproduce... Wow... DENSE.

  • @themarycity Nah if you asked the planet (the world) she'd probably say humans were one of her biggest problems... And especially humans like you

  • Free subscription when you post comment one one of my videos!

  • @efftheteacher

    the planet has volcanoes that could block out the sun and kill every single living being on its surface. fact.

    no matter what, i doubt we're the biggest threat to this planet quite y
