Islands of Plastic

I have just returned from a couple of weeks in the Bahamas on a very good vacation.

As we walked along the beach we observed  bits of clear plastic and  styrofoam pieces that were mixed in with the seaweed and shells along the water lapping edge of the Atlantic Ocean.

Seeing the impact of plastic in the ocean is a wake up call. It was only about 60 years ago that we started using plastic for packaging. We now are finding vast areas of the ocean full of plastic. We need to start to change away from non-degradable fossil based plastic to biobased compostable  feedstocks.

To me this is a much more important problem then the theory of global warming. Here is an article about plastic in the ocean.

The challenge is to become aware of the true cost of non-degradable plastic.

As the consumer becomes educated, she will make a good choice for the future.

Plastic  is changing our lives right now.

Here is an example
