Title: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch Hawaii Post by: Donna on 02-Mar-12, 06:41:15 AM http://blog.bird-rescue.org/index.php/2012/02/the-great-pacific-garbage-patch/ (http://blog.bird-rescue.org/index.php/2012/02/the-great-pacific-garbage-patch/)
The beauty of the place was overwhelming, but unfortunately what really caught my attention was the trash. Beaches that should be pristine were littered with plastic of all kinds, as far as you could see. It was shocking and disturbing to see that Albatrosses were feeding the smaller pieces of plastic to their chicks. :( http://youtu.be/PIl7zl_9fTA (http://youtu.be/PIl7zl_9fTA) Very disturbing. |
