We all need to pitch in and recycle the plastic glacier that is killing our oceans!steemCreated with Sketch.

Some possibilities on removing plastic trash from the oceans. We all need to protect this planet, but I am NOT an Environmentalist! I am a Conservationist. The difference is that instead of marching with signs, and taking land owners into courts, as an environmentalist will do; I would rather carry a bag and pick up trash, or BUY the land and clean it up myself..a Conservationist!

Trash is a growing problem in the oceans these days, image from article:

Here are some scientific based ways to help clean up ocean trash. Some is simple, pick it up before it gets there, and some is more technology related, make plastic that breaks down faster.

The bottom line: Pick it up and recycle it before it becomes trash, and we all win! Don't just march, chant and sue; get off your duff, and pick it up! Your Momma ain't here, pick up your own mess! Just to be a big boy about it, pick up twice what you are responsible for, and the World will be a better place!

Someone may see you doing it, and join in and we all win!

It is so sad to think how lazy people are when I see them throwing trash out their windows! I mean really....you can't wait to throw it away properly???

That is the difference, the environmentalist will picket and sue, and throw cups out the window....

If you have spent time removing trash personally (a Conservationist), you are not going to toss that cup out the window!

Too bad nothing can be done about the radioactive material washing up on our western shores from Fukushima

That is easy, let's just sop that up with California politicians! They have no backbone, and are doormats anyway....

Then we can ship them to Japan in leaky barrels!

That’s a brilliant idea!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Especially the last part? Leaky barrels, ROFLOL!

They probably would not appreciate all our noble efforts; but it sure would be a Blast! Now, how can we get those useless politicians down the the shoreline....
