Remember, 80% of the plastic pollution found in oceans come from land based sources, which means that we're not throwing our trash in the recycle bin, especially plastisc, where they belong! The North Pacific Gyre, also known as "plastic soup," is now estimated to be twice the size of the state of Texas! Once plastics are broken down, they're consumed by marine life, who either die or end up on our dinner plates! Now, who wants a salmon stuffed with plastic chemicals?
On the 18th, we'll be cleaning up the beaches in Durban! Find out the closest beach clean up to you by checking out the Clean Up the World website: http://www.cleanuptheworld.org/en/ So get out there! Get a tan! and get some trash! We'd love to hear who got involved, so post where you cleaned up on our blog! Beach cleaners unite! woohoo!!
Big hugs and kisses from Swaziland!

Let's make some waves!
