#Repost @guardian (@get_repost) ・・・ @justinhofman's photo of a seahorse holding on to a cotton swab in Indonesia was one of the defining photos of 2017. "It’s a photo that I wish didn’t exist, but now that it does I want everyone to see it. I see trash and wildlife together a lot, but this is the most dramatic interaction I've seen." @plasticoceans claim eight million tonnes of plastic is dumped in our oceans every year, and one in three mammals have been found entangled in marine litter. According to @wwf, over 80% of current pollution comes from waste that didn't exist 60 years ago. -------------------------------------------------------------------- It was this photo that made me switch to all paper cotton buds. I don't think I hate anything more than plastic, and we're so trapped by it. Everything is either made of it, or packaged in it. #plastic #waste #pollution #cottonbud #ocean #liveclean #seahorse
