Dreaming of Plastic-Free Days in the Ocean

--by mafrika, posted Jul 24, 2010

Here is a little something that I like to do, and I thought I'd share it as my act of today...

I love swimming in the ocean, and when I do, if I see plastic in the water, I remove it. Then, when I'm done swimming, I pick up as many plastic bottles that I can carry and dump them in the bin.

While this is not random to human beings, it is kind to the precious ocean that I love so much. I look forward to plastic-free days somewhere in the future...

May this inspire you to be kind to our beloved oceans and to Mother Nature so those plastic-free days that I dream about will become a reality!

When I vacation at the beach...my daughter and I walk the beach early in the morning with a bag to collect garbage...it makes us feel happy knowing we are making a difference. You are wonderful for passing this on to us to remind us to not to litter and if we see...clean it up!
