Protect the oceans

I did share a shot of this temporary display outside the visitor's entrance to the United Nations Headquarters in NYC, and promised I would share some more shots of it, well I finally got around to editing my photos of it and here are a few shots of it

Its quite a powerful piece to see, and really does make the point about what all the trash in the ocean can do to the wildlife, such as the fishing nets and plastic on the flipper of the whale

And a last shot of another one of the turtles in this piece all caught up in nets and plastic, I am always kind of shocked and disgusted when people leave trash on the beaches here, and I hope this piece does what it is probably intended to and makes some people think about what they are doing and the impact it has on the environment

They certainly make the point, wow!

OHh yes i think so

Yes Perhaps I should have said protect the planet

Birds losing legs with fishing line floating in the water is a common thing to see on our beaches of late.

This is an excellent reminder to take trash home with you if there is no trash can available.

I have seen some birds with damaged logs a well most likely caused the same way so I think reminders like this should be in prominent places all over to educate others to take there trash with them

Unfortunately you have to be in peoples faces, up their noses all the time to get them to think of consequence, much easier to toss the trash anywhere.

Sadly I know you are right and sadly also some people will never change :(

Something has to be done about all the plastic that winds up in the worlds waters....🤣

Ohhyes I so agree I think pieces like this should be in prominent display all around the world to make people think

Wow, that is certainly powerful @tattoodjay. I hope it does get through to a few people, when I see people throwing trash out the window of their cars I am stunned....I just don't get it. Fantastic shots :)

Ohh yes that so infuriates me when I see people just dumping trash out the car window or leaving their trash on beaches or parks,I think more pieces like this should be shown around the world to make people think about what they are doing
