Plastic Paradise
This documentary shed’s light on the dangers of plastic and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. We have become a society that demands low cost on consumer items, but are ignorant to the last effectives of our manners on mother earth. We live life without regard to our behaviors and how they affect our ecosystem and environment and this way of life must be stopped before we ruin our planet.
I highly recommend watching the full documentary for free on Netflix!
