Midway Island - Plastic Disaster

I came across a video on Facebook today and 

had to post it on my blog immediately. 

This video is about an island in the ocean called 

Midway Atoll or Midway Island.

This island is 2.4 square miles and is roughly 

equidistant between North America and Asia.

Nobody lives on this island, only birds.

The photographs taken show how the

 plastic debris in our oceans create a devastating 

effect on the birds who live on this island.  

It brought tears to my eyes and gave me 

greater conviction to continue creating art

that communicates the severity of the

environmental crisis that plagues our world.

Please watch.
