I knew plastic was a huge issue for our environment just didn't realize how bad. One of our goals this year is to become plastic and man-made fabric free. After reading this I hope to achieve this earlier than the end of the year.

So Beautiful! But, as we were driving across a bridge, a plastic bottle flew out of the window of the car coming in the opposite direction. Over the guard rail it went. The river below will take it to the sea. I'm not sure what it would take for the people in that car to change that sort of behaviour, but I do think blogs like yours are inspiring and offer advice and information to those willing to look.

I also thing it is so important for the children to see how everything is interconnected. Learning makes so much more sense when it is in context – they learn all sorts of skills by examining things that they are passionate about. They are involved in identifying the issues which concern them, asking the research questions and then coming up with positive way to take action to make a contribution – to make a difference.

I have seen the plastic bags floating in our water but had no idea about the extent of the damage to marine life.
