The Ocean Cleanup’s System 03 Captures Record Amounts of #Plastic From the #Pacific
The #Ocean#Cleanup is currently testing System 03, a massive plastic #pollution collection device that captures tons of floating debris in the Great Pacific #Garbage Patch.
Keeping #dolphins, #orcas and other cetaceans in #captivity is cruel. Depriving them of the vast open spaces and social bonds that they would normally have in the wild, and confining them to small, concrete #tanks to perform tricks for dead fish is highly unethical for these complex marine mammals. No matter how sophisticated the enclosure, no man made facility can ever hope to replicate the wild world of dolphins and whales.
Captive dolphins are kept intentionally hungry, at facilities with #PettingPools so that they are forced to interact with park visitors. The fish portions are very small, to keep the dolphins constantly coming back for more. The animals endure poking and prodding from thousands of guests everyday.
Sometimes the dolphins are touched in a rough or painful way by well-meaning tourists. Inevitably, #garbage is dropped in the pools,
Disney is now charging a two dollar resort fee to have access to a garbage can at the park. You will have to swipe your resort bracelet to unlock a garbage can to throw away a wrapper from the food you bought at Disney....and it will be automatically charged at the hotel.
The ecoconscious part of me says, yeah, okay. The inner rebel feels that Disney is expensive enough, and you just see where I put that garbage. Lol
💿 Ce jour en 1980, #TheClash sortait "Train In Vain "– le troisième single de leur troisième album studio "London Calling".
Le titre est écrit et enregistré en 48 h. Il ne figurera pas dans la track-list sur la première édition de l’album. Ils oublieront aussi dans la première édition CD.(collector) 😂 C’est Mick qui chante et ecrit ce titre, après sa rupture avec Viv Albertine.
La chanson "Stupid Girl" du groupe #Garbage est entièrement construite sur la rythmique de "Train In Vain".
If anyone says that planned obsolescence isn't a thing, I'm going to throw my shitty Whirlpool washer and dryer set at them.
Less than four years. Let that sink in. FOUR YEARS.
And I'm unable to fix it myself. Why? Because in order to get the parts I need, I've been told I have to have a diagnostic done. I don't need one. Because I already know what the issue is, SINCE IT ALREADY HAPPENED WITH THE SHITTY WASHER.
America wastes a staggering one-third of its food, as revealed by a MITRE-Gallup report in November. This translates to an average family of four throwing away at least $1,500 worth of food each year.
@taylorlorenz AI is a waste of good energy and time needed to solve actual problems. The boredom suffered by #billionaires produces #hate and #garbage none of us needs.
