This planets victims!


When a dead whale washed up on the beach in the Phillippines on Saturday the veterinarians mistook it for a pregnant female because of its swollen belly.
It was in fact a severely emaciated juvenile male , a Culvers beaked whale to be exact..filled to bursting with 40 kilograms of hard calcified plastic garbage..The whale was found on the beach near a town called Mabini. As the veterinarians started cutting it open one reached his hand way down inside and finding a real hard lump. The countrys Bereau of Fisheries and Aquatic resources said its the biggest collection of plastic they had ever seen inside any mammal..Two lumps of calcified plastic balls the size of basketballs was discovered lodged inside its stomach completely blocking its digestive tract, it literally starved to death..Literall plastic bag after bag was pulled out of the stomach of the whale..
Ok so where does this stuff come from? Well believe it or not the ocean is full of plastic and sometimes we get to see it and sometimes not..Is there grocery stores at the bottom of the ocean that we don't see? Nooo of course not silly., but this stuff gotta be coming from somewhere..
Well in 2015 it was determined that somewhere between 4.8 million and 12.7 million tonnes of plastic came from people living no more than 50 km from any coastline and had already made its way into our oceans..Much of this is centered in The Great Pacific Garbage Patch ,a hugh floating mass of mostly plastic that grown three times the size of France.but floating masses of plastic is not only found locally it has been found floating as far away as Antarctica and as far down in the deepest trenches in the ocean,and it ending up in the bellies of our marine life.often causing agonizing death.
This whale had been suffering for months and so much so that if it hadn't died the stomach was close to bursting..normal diet of squid and fish wouldn't pass thru because of the plastic which had become a hard mass due to stomach acids burning it into the hard mass..so whats to be done? hmmmm.
People take the mentality of " well its not my problem " make it someone elses...ships that dump large amounts of garbage at sea hardly ever get caught , do they have to plant a snitch on board? can you imagine if that person would get caught ? well I am guessing he would either sleep with the fishes or end up like Jonah , literally in the belly of a whale..thoughts ? comments? welcome..

The hand of God wont be lifted at all when man is doing all the lifting that's needed. .First he destroys the land , then the animals die...so whats next ? imagine our Earth 1000 years from now...if its still here..

So sad. I wonder if and what cruise ships dump. I have heard they do dump garbage. If so, shame on them.

Mostly Plastic.

It is sad and that just means the issue needs attention. All of us are called to do something and we must, we are and we will. There are many initiatives to stopping plastic bags at grocery store and many businesses; biodegradable will become common-place in this century, climate change and specific things to do about it will be on the front burner of the next election.
Look at small organizations like 4 Oceans who have organized to gather all the plastic they can find in the oceans. There needs to be and there will be more groups like this.
The time for being sad about this issue is important only because it will lead us to the time of action.

Nope for the most of us that do care there are hundreds that don't and the sad part we suffer along with the wildlife on the planet because few can do so little to make any great difference ..I recycle everything and it pissed me off immensely when my aide lived here bragging about how he threw everything in the garbage...I knew he was a slob just never knew how bad ..I watched him empty a grocery bag walk over to my bin and throw it on the floor right beside the bin...he got shit for that believe me..he did it in my vehicle once ..I made him get out big time...till he picked it up..

Such a sad story! There's a move afoot to reduce dependency upon plastics and choose more environmentally friendly options. I think that's a healthy development for all species.

ok well my thing I look at is if they know that the place exists stating the great pacific garbage patch , why isn't someone doing anything about the cleanup? now I understand it takes money and time and people to take on a project like that but someone has to start somewhere yes? I mean a place where its triple the size or more of france? come on someone took time to explore that ..??

yes and as I stated to another commenter if these people know that a place exists where the garbage mostly plastic is so hugh why not start cleanup within those perimeters .someone obviously studied that so whats gonna happen to that floating garbage? geez
