Plastic

Plastic is something that we use every single day, plastic wrappers, plastic bottles, plastic bags, etc.. Now plastic can be very useful but also can be horrible. Take a look at the picture at the top. As you can tell this is an innocent turtle with a piece of PLASTIC in its mouth! Plastic should not be a food choice for these poor animals!
On one website it says to be estimated that about 315 billion pounds of plastic in the ocean. The ocean is something we need blue and clean not used as a trash heap! These animals don't need their stomaches filled with trash! Do we eat trash? No, or at least I hope not, so these living breathing creatures should not have to eat trash either! So join me and other nature lovers around the world and do something about this plastic problem! For example, stop using plastic water bottles and use a re-usable one intsead. It's that simple! So take this picture into consideration and do something about it. That's all for now, get active in cleaning up our earth, it could save thousands of lives.
