Plastic Handcuffs
Would we care more if it was us being entangled or killed? We discard so much with little thought of what happens to it afterwards. If it was us suffering from plastic inflicted wounds, would change happen quicker? #oceanplastic #stoptheplastictide *fake gore*
This video is from a beautiful & remote beach on Isle of Ulva. None of this rubbish was generated from the island. All of it was at one time floating in our oceans. This is the reality of many of our coastlines. We all need to take action to #stoptheplastictide Marine Conservation Society

When we first started polluting our oceans, we didn't know the harm we were doing. Now, we know. So now it is our moral responsibility to act.
