Plastic tide

Posted on 28th January, 2017

Did you catch the Sky News report on plastics in our seas. It was disturbing stuff.  You can watch it here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/D35YnZ7_WxM

 

"More than eight million tonnes of plastic is thrown away each year and washed out to sea.
It takes centuries to break down. It's eaten by marine creatures. And it's in our food chain. Your seafood supper may have a synthetic garnish. Scientists just don't know what effects it has on our health."

 

 

And if it moves you to join a beach clean, have a look at the cleans the Marine Conservation Society has listed: http://www.mcsuk.org/beachwatch/
