    Plastic. What a bummer.

    Go to YouTube > search for "Vice" > search for "plastic in ocean" documentary. Become incredibly depressed. Open a bottle of fav beer. Consume. Feel less depressed. Sober up, think about said documentary and how many particles of plastic (6 million tons per year) is put into the ocean. Become depressed again.

    What a shitty state of affairs we are in as we all need and use plastic every day. It's toxic, and it doesn't breakdown beyond tiny particles...and we are all consuming it when we eat fish. Fark

    Discuss? (mind the typos, posting from phone)

    Normally I don't press depressing shit on MS unrelated to music. But this is one of those topics I'm looking for further insight/opinions on.

    It was fun while it lasted...

            My company cleans the sewer and storm water drain all over South Africa via high pressure jetting and then CCTV the lines with rovion cameras.

            South African are dirty dirty people with no conscience for the environment and the damage we do

                        Have to stay optimistic that necessary changes will be made so it'll all be ok.

                            you're pissing me off FL... pretty much daily.
                            why you gotta post this stuff? come on.............

                            where's our 'keep the faith,' optimistic, 'we're all in this together,' innovation & inspiration, solution-oriented floridaorange?
