“Toxic Soup”
It goes straight to the ocean people!
How many of you would like to have a bowl of some toxic soup? Maybe those that litter should have first pick, what do you say?
Is also know as STORWATER POLLUTION. It is a problem, when we are not being responsible for what is happening to the earth. We complain about our water quality, our air quality, our health, but we sure don’t listen or pay attention to the simple things of life, like throwing your garbage in the trashbin. If there is not one one in sight, then wait to you get to one.
The trash that is being littered on the street, is rammed in the street drains and the goes through the storm drain system, and you know, it is not filtered, or cleaned in anyway, because that system was made for unlittered water to go through. But ofcourse it isn’t that way! Shame on us!
It is not good for the marine life, and the next time you think about going to the beach, just know that if you litter, you are swimming in your own dump, and ruining for the sea creatures and others to enjoy!

Aluminum Foil
Some of us use aluminum foil for parties or at home to cover our left overs and just for kitchen use in general. You can also recylce aluminum foil, just wash it, and use it again, or just rinse it and throw it in your recyclin bin.
There are other several ways you can recycle aluminum foil. You can reuse it, make art with it, keep it around as emergency foil. Who knows, just try it out, or just recycle it!
