Please… Rethink Plastic

As you all know, I am an avid supporter of Plastic Pollution Coalition. I do my part by buying as little plastic as possible, I do not drink bottled water, and all the plastic that we do use in our home, gets recycled (at least I pray it is, when the city picks up our recycling bins), I use re-usable shopping bags when I go shopping and I donate monthy to this organization. Its not a lot, but if everybody did this we would have alot less trash in our oceans.  Today Plastic Pollution Coalition shared a video on their facebook wall, and it really touched me. It is a short video, but just goes to show, that we humans are so disrespectful of our environment and the animals that reside in it. Please Rethink plastic.

From the video description: “Dolphins play with anything in their environment, even our trash.  Thankfully, this guy was able to free himself after he disappeared.  I found the bag, floating in the water, 15 minutes later. This could have ended very differently.  Please think before you use plastic. Video from http://www.youtube.com/user/PaulphinPhotography
