We live in a wonderful world but in
recent years our world has been devastated by hurricanes,
earthquakes, floods and droughts. There is no doubt in the world
scientific community that this is the direct results of human
activity and the effects of climate change will become worse in the
future.
From oil spills to overflowing landfills, man’s unsustainable quest to live a better life with little regard for the environment has caused a staggering amount of environmental disasters to be formed. At present, pollution is labeled to be the N°1 killer, affecting more than 100 million worldwide.
Following are shocking photos which capture man-made disasters and their effect on the environment. If these photos don’t inspire you to collect trash when you see it, it’s time to wake up.
The photos shown above expose the truth of
what is happening across the globe. If you think your plastic isn't ending
up in nature, think again. Much of it ends up there without you
realizing, from flying out of your garbage can, the garbage truck, or
the landfill. Animals are constantly being suffocated, starved, or
weighed down due to ingesting plastics. Everything that we can do to
reduce our plastic usage as individuals counts.
