in #pollution8 years ago (edited)

I was reading some articles and web sites over plastic pollution for land and sea. I was shocked by reading those articles. I am sharing some photos and web links for more detail information. Photos source are referenced at the bottom.

If birds eat plastic it will not get digest in its stomach and will stay undigested until bird death

I am really happy to see that other people also care about this topic.
Maybe you are interested in my article here pointing out the same problem ...

Thank you for writing me. I really do not understand why people dont care about their health and environment arround them. We are so much busy in machine life no one cares...
i am happy atleast one person is with me

Thank you

We here lots about CO2, but all the other pollution is doing immediate damage to air, water and ground. We need to get away from an economy based on waste.

Hey the sharegull, We're working on a super exciting solution for plastic pollution. I've seem that Midway movie with the storks dying from the plastic. We're thus working super hard on disseminating the concept of Ecobricking here in Indonesia (second biggest source of plastic marine pollution in Asia). Check out our site here: www.Ecobricks.org I am just getting going on Steemit and can't wait to share more on here about it!

Am so happy when I read what people write about plastics, it inspires me a lot.I took part in a campaign to end plastic pollution in Cameroon.
