You can say what you will about pollution, plastic bags and the like, but what is true s that it is a problem. My heart aches for the turtle with the “belt”, it is just terrible to look at. And I’m thinking of that whale they found this fall, that had a lot of plastic bags in its belly (they eat them because they look like jelly fish). I am considering beginning to pick up other peoples’ rubbish in the streets, not just my own.
