I want to share this TED video of Captain Charles Moore speaking on the growing problem of waste plastic in our oceans. Check it out. It’s only 7 minutes long. I love when he says “diddly point squat.” hehe

The summary from TED:

“Capt. Charles Moore of the Algalita Marine Research Foundation first discovered the Great Pacific Garbage Patch — an endless floating waste of plastic trash. Now he’s drawing attention to the growing, choking problem of plastic debris in our seas.”

Great post on plastic bags! We make always stop our boat to pull a plastic bag out of the Okanagan Lake in BC. We also use canvas bags when shopping and looking for recyle bags for lunches. When out and about in pick up those plastic bags and when shopping go canvas! We have a website for green travel in Canada. Most people forget about going green when traveling but it’s easy to do.
