Plastics
1. PLASTICS
- A THREAT TO BIRDS
Look deep into
nature,
and then you will
understand
everything better.
~ Albert Einstein ~
2. LETS ASK SOME QUESTIONS FROM
OURSELVES….
Are plastic bags really necessary ?
Do we need plastic bags for some grocery to take it at
home ?
Did we ever think for even a second before throwing
plastic wastes anywhere ?
How much plastic do we really need ?
Do you feel safe eating food from a plastic container
that was micro waved?
Buying water in plastic bottles is a waste, do you agree?
4. AN EXAMPLE ..!!
In many areas of the globe, birds inadvertently
feed on plastic floating on the water, mistaking it
for food, and many times this ingestion leads to
death and even the death of their young. A report
by scientists studying the stomach content of
Laysan Albatross chicks on Midway Atoll in the
Pacific Ocean revealed disturbing results: Forty
percent of Laysan Albatross chicks die before
fledging. Necropsies of the chick's stomachs
found them filled with plastic trash. (See photo to

debris on Midway Atoll)
9. SO CAN WE DO SOMETHING NOW…??
“YES” we can.
We are not new to recycling. We’ve been doing it for years and it’s
a big part of your daily routine. We’ve become at an expert at
identifying what plastics you can and cannot recycle. Now focus
on another important part of eco-friendly living: reduce the use
of plastic.
Recent studies have shown that there’s more plastic than
plankton in some of the remote parts of our oceans . We need
to remove it...!
So let’s get to it–
