Plastic Ocean -Grace Powell

Where is it coming from? The writer really made some good points in this part of the article, where he points out the reasons and how the waste gets in the sea. People have gotten to where they don’t care about the earth and just continue to destroy our waters, and the author continues to point that out. He makes a big move coming out and speaking statistics about whose fault this is. But it’s not only our fault as a country, and it’s not just china’s fault. He tries to get that point across, that we did this as a whole. It should be a bigger deal to clean our rivers and and keep this from happening anymore than it already has. Our rivers and our sewer systems should not be flushing waste into our ocean waters. Killing species, harming us as humans, we should be able to do something to prevent these things from getting in our waters. Campaigns and banning smaller things to try and prevent these things from happening isn’t going to stop everything. The author uses these statistics, and facts to scare the people who are reading this article, but he does this to prove a point. To show what we as a world are doing. I think he made a wise move in this article to make his point known.
