Pollution is one of the single largest threats to our ecosystem today. Things like litter, air pollution, and pesticides have been wreaking havoc on native species and lands. It also has a direct connection to climate change and global warming. This is not news, and most people are aware of how destructive pollution is. Things like atmospheric CO2 levels and sea animals ingesting plastics get a lot of media coverage, but they aren't the only consequences. It's not to say that these things aren't important, but some aspects of pollution (and climate change) go unnoticed by the general public. While there is an obvious connection between ocean litter and plastic content in sea creature's stomachs, not all consequences are so clear-cut. Things like the human impact, the sociological impact, and some elements of the environmental change are beginning to surface. Today, I'd like to share some of the things I find to be particularly saddening.
