Description

// By 2050, there will be |{MOAR PLASTIC THAN FISH}| in the ocean! // :::: DONATIONS to OCEANIC SOCIETY :::: via THE GIVING BLOCK :::: 50% of primary sales and royalties (included in smart contract) There are >~150 million tonnes of plastic~ in the world's oceans now…and **2 truckloads** are added every ~60 seconds~. That adds up to +8 million tonnes+ every year…enough to heap {5 full grocery bags} onto each bit of the °coastline° on the entire Earth. And we're adding more+ at an ^^exponentially faster ^^rate^^. By *2025**, those {{5 bags will double to 10 bags}} per /year. Where is it all ~hanging out~? Have you heard of the °Great Pacific Garbage Patch°? It's the biggest one out of several around the world. {Plastic} entering the ocean is moved far >> around the globe by @gyres... = large systems of »swirling »rotating »currents caused by :: [wind currents (hello Zephyr), the Earth's rotation, and landmasses]. The @gyres suck the plastic into the center, and these immense swaths of ocean are called {{garbage patches}}. In reality, it´s more like a [»plastic soup«]:: trillions of pieces of plastic debris breaking further and further down into {{{microplastics}}} that toxify ecosystems and food chains ^^indefinitely^^. // Yum~~~ // Could we stop ^^seasoning this >giant >bowl of >toxic soup< with {unnecessary} plastic? Special thanks to Vilma Ponce for the original photo of Plastiqu33n, and to @dokuchmo for animating. ~~~Let's use smart contracts to make automatic royalties donations to charities a common practice!~~~
