Our fearless approach to conservation drives all that we do, and the results are measurable. We’ve made significant strides to safeguard rare birds, conserve important bird habitat, reduce top threats to birds, and build an Americas-wide community of bird conservationists.
Toxic neonicotinoids are in hundreds of products, from seeds to salad bars.

ABC's seabird expert Hannah Nevins answers questions about why plastic is a problem for seabirds, and how you can help. "The worst offenders are items people use every day – plastic stir-sticks, straws, plastic bottles and caps, Styrofoam coffee cups, and cigarette lighters and butts. Discarded fishery gear (lines, rope, broken traps), six-pack ring holders, and party balloons also have devastating effects on marine birds."

It is up to us all to STOP using plastic, especially single use plastic. Let's recognixe our respinsibility in all this. Use reusable bottles and filter our water, use reusable coffee, tea containers and reusabke bags. no more plastic straws. It means being conscious hut we each individually and collectively make a huge difference. The marketplace will follow. It is disgusting. Let's all step up.
Simple solution: Parents, become true parents and educate yourselves and then educate your children why not to litter and 'how' to use a rubbish bin or 'why' to take litter home with home if no rubbish bin is around. (Everbody in the past generations did it so there isno reason otherthan ignorance or insanity not to do it like we and our ancestors did...)
Birds and turtles DO NOT LIKE PLASTIC. Keep it out of the water.
HIRE someone (crew) to PICK IT UP!! People need jobs, have you heard? Jeezuz.
Unbeliveable
Disgusting!
