You should listen very carefully to this story on the plastic continent. Do you know why? Because every year ingest about 4000 plastic microparticles!
Yes, you got it right! Take a couple of minutes to read this article.
You must know that between America and Asia there is a continent of which there is very little talk. It is as big as three times France, but it is not a continent made of earth, where trees and animals are born, but it is a continent made of 80,000 tons of waste, mostly plastic (polyethylene and polypropylene).
It was discovered in the 80s and its dimensions unfortunately increase every day.
Unfortunately, the bad news is not over. There are other huge floating islands of rubbish around the oceans.
An underestimated ecological disaster. More than 12 million tonnes of plastics end up annually in the ocean, 25 million marine animals are wiped off the oceans annually and the seas have become 30% more acidic, putting the entire global ecosystem at risk.
Become aware that without a functioning ecosystem, the atmosphere can not work. And without a working atmosphere, man can not survive.
Can you understand the gravity of the situation?

He thinks that everything was born of billiard balls. Up to the middle of the nineteenth century billiard balls were made of ivory, with elephant tusks. It was very expensive to make them and about 12,000 elephants were killed each year. It was necessary to find an alternative, both to reduce costs and to find an ecological solution.
Then a producer of American billiards, decided to give a prize to the chemist who had solved the problem and the result was the celluloid, an artificial plastic patented in the USA by John Wesley Hyatt in 1869.
It is curious to note therefore that plastic was also created as an ecological material to save life to animals. And the same material to save the environment is now ruining it. Why?
Of course the root of every problem is always the ignorance that must be contrasted with the culture, read books and a continuous formation. With more culture and more education there would be less stupidity.
Yes! Man is stupid!
How can you create disposables things with an indestructible material? It’s stupid, do not you think?
Do you know that a bottle in water takes about 500 years to degrade? Warning! Plastic is not biodegradable, but photodegradable.
It means that atmospheric agents such as water, wind and sun break it down into microplastic. So very small plastic particles spread in the environment and end up being ingested by the animals that end up on our tables.
I have to give you some bad news! Even sea salt is contaminated with plastic microfibers and even the water from taps all over the world contains traces of microplastic.
Studies reveal that about 4000 plastic microparticles end up in your blood every year!
We have noticed that the pollution from plastics has a strong negative impact on the fauna, do you think that for the health of the man it is not the same one?
As always, man is the architect of his situation. The plastic continent was discovered in the 1980s and since then very little has been done and no important decisions have been taken to put an end to this disaster.
Perhaps too many economic interests? But without a planet where you can live, what is the money for?
“Only when the last river has been poisoned, the last tree has died, the last bison has been taked and the last fish has been caught will they realize that they can’t eat the money accumulated in their banks”. Setting Bull
However, it is also the fault of ordinary people, who when they finish a plastic object, choose not to participate in separate waste collection and choose not to help recycling.
Not to mention the “beasts” that throw waste on the ground, in the grass, in the woods, in the beaches, in the seas and in the rivers. For them a triple dose of culture and training is urgent.
Unfortunately, studies tell us that there are only 30 years left, and then in 2050 the weight of the plastic will be greater than the weight of all the fish present in the seas and oceans. So there will be more plastic than fish at sea!
This is scary. We have ruined the most beautiful planet in the galaxies!
Now I need your maximum ATTENTION!
Keep in mind that in front of every new discovery, whether it is a new material, a new form of energy or new technology, man is called to a challenge, to be up to that discovery.
Think now about science fiction movies where man creates something, and then this something comes out of his control and endangers the world. If you think about it, these are not just stories because there is a bottom of truth. In these films there are hidden and hidden teachings that warn man about his future
Now open your mind!
We have to live up to our technologies or we risk being swept away. (Think of the plastic, nuclear disasters, but also the abuse of smartphones that is generating new serious diseases).
I am not opposed to evolution and technological progress, but there is one key thing to keep in mind:
TOGETHER WITH THE EVOLUTION AND PROGRESS, WE MUST FAVOR AND DEVELOP A CULTURAL, INTELLECTUAL, ETHICAL AND MENTAL EVOLUTION!
Otherwise progress will be a regression made of new disasters and catastrophes.
We all have to, ALL, put our hands on our conscience and contribute to the change of the future. Do you know why we should be interested in the future? Because that’s where we’re going to live!!!
Now it does not matter whether you are white, black, red or yellow. It does not matter where in the world you come from. We are all inhabitants of this planet and it is time to join forces to make the most extraordinary planet of galaxies shine again. Let’s take back our earthly paradise.

From now on, think about how you manage your waste. Commit to recycle and not feed plastic consumption!
