The Plastics Problem-

We were first made aware of this problem when Deb's son George, a world class sailor, participated in the Volvo round the world race a couple of years ago on ABN AMRO II. 'Bear' telling us that in the far southern ocean below Australia, they were finding plastics in the sea, plastics wrapped about albatross, and then as he traveled the earth's circumference there were more reports. Every where- plastics, on beaches, but mainly loading up the waters, sailing in the midst of no where, hundreds of miles from land, sometimes thousands, and plastics. So Sad, We must ban the dumping of garbage in our Oceans. Even Now the plastics will remain for ever?
