Anyone hazard a guess what the #1 particulate matter is in our world oceans? No, not plankton or the deepwater 'snow' of decomposing flora and fauna. It's post consumer plastic <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />. There are huge offshore 'dead zones' where nitrogen runoff from agriculture has killed the entire biotic complex. Those nifty plastic 6 pack plastic connectors are more deadly to animals than all of our painfully constructed PSK snares and aluminum ingested ( it has a sweet taste to many animals) causes the intestinal tract to swell shut with a painfull and slow death following. Oh gee! this thread can get out of hand and I'm not helping. Suffice it to say my brother was such a slob. I returned from a camping trip and dumped his trash into his living room. "HEY! this is my home! So is the forest CHUNKHEAD!" end of story.
