WHO LEFT THE DOOTIE IN THE POOL, OCEAN?
Okay, so this doesn't really have to do with the house directly but is important information about everyone's home, the planet. I read an article yesterday about these two moving islands of trash in the Pacific ocean. Trash migrates to these two spots that are at the center of these eddies and collects there. The plastic does not biodegrade so it floats there until it photo degrades, becomes brittle, breaks in to small pieces that sink into the water and end up in the bellies of fish and other marine life. This either kills them or ends up on our dinner plate. This seems pretty disgusting to me.
Josh had a great comment about it. He said the ocean is helping us out by putting all of this trash into two very accesible and concentrated spots for us to pick up. Now we humans have to do our part and go out there and pick it up!
