Litter on the Beach
By Upen Josh
My joy of being on a heaven-like beach in Goa turned into sadness. As I with my family was sauntering on the beach, I saw plastic bags and bottles littered almost everywhere. As I pondered over the causes of the litter, in my mind’s eye I found the culprit behind all this litter. Man’s careless attitude to nature is the sole cause of this hell created on the beautiful beaches.
A walk along any river, lake, and beach is sufficient to know the consequences of this ubiquitous ugliness floating. According to Ocean Crusaders, an organization dedicated to fighting plastic pollution 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic debris in the ocean. According to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, plastic debris kills an estimated 100,000 marine mammals annually, as well as millions of birds and fishes. Scientists in their recent research have found plastic to be much more toxic than previously expected. Plastic is making our environment highly toxic.
We must behave like responsible tourists. We must not litter these places of scenic beauty.
