Save the Oceans

Every hour, approximately 1.6 MILLION tons of waste enters our ocean. That's SO crazy!! During tourist season here in Florida, you can see trash floating in the water near the hot spots where people visit. It is also all over the beach! It is so gross and bad for the wildlife. I challenge everyone to stop littering!!! And think about doing a quick cleanup in an area you are close by to do you part and help the environment.

I like your post bringing awareness to a major problem that we must all fix together in the Tampa Bay area!

Club Tampa Bay is following you now!

Thank you @kellycakes1 I'm following you too! I love the Tampa Bay area! I just would be so sad to see it destroyed!

Good and kind initiative, empathy for life, I congratulate you for such good action.

Thank you @kira-korsakov

Yes, my wife @texasbodi and I just took a cruise out of Port Canaveral, couldn't believe all the trash floating around. We figured a lot of it was from the hurricane, but I don't know.

Some of it could of been from the hurricane, but unfortunately a lot of it probably wasn't :( You would be surprised how many times I have seen people directly throw trash into the ocean, or leave their trash on the beach.
