Earth is filled with dangerous things. Dangerous things that slayed thousands and thousands of living things. Be it human or animals. As time goes by, we’ll probably realize that nothing is safe anymore. Now, let’s get rid of this dark introduction and actually start off sunny and bright. Imagine, walking into the mall, greeted by the cool air, entering your favorite store and buying something you actually like or eating in one of your favorite restaurants and asking for a take out. Seems fun. And this might be your typical day. Surely, you won’t carrying all those stuff in your hands. You would need something to put them into and they are commonly known as plastic bags. And they are quite dangerous.<\/p>\n
\u00a0An ocean-sized trash bin. Literally. Our oceans are being filled with plastics. More and more plastics. And these plastics slayed hundreds of hundreds of birds and marine animals. These plastics are mistaken for food. Animals doesn’t have a single idea, eats them and in a couple of days or months later, they die. These plastics is a convenient thing for us human but, is a threat to the birds and marine animals. The ocean is in a middle of a crisis. And it’s all because of our mindless thinking.<\/p>\n

\u00a0We, humans are careless beings. We do things without even thinking about the consequences. That the simple things such as throwing plastics in inappropriate places is actually causing havoc in the oceans. We should stop. We are killing guiltless animals here. Doesn’t our conscience bother us? There are programs which have been established to stop this threat. And in the mean time, they might be of great help. However, those programs might not succeed to officially stop this mayhem when we, the normal individuals continue to act in such immoral ways.<\/p>\n
There are several things we can do stop this. First things first, recycle. We can do a lot of things with plastics. It can be made into something useful at home, at school and at work. Then we have the stop-being-excessive way, where we can lessen our use of plastics. There are alternative materials that we can substitute for plastics. We might succeed. We can save them, the birds and marine animals. For this operation to attain accomplishment, let’s educate others about the plastic pollution in the ocean. Let’s tell them that we are killing sinless animals. By doing this, we are saving hundreds of lives.<\/p>\n
