Ocean
The ocean is full of pollution
Dolphins dying galore
What’s the solution?
I implore
Recycle your trash
It’ll make such a splash
Reuse your clothes
It won’t be so hard, I suppose
Try turning off the lights, and the water too
It’ll be such a breakthrough
Help the ocean
It’s helped you before
Don’t you remember playing on its shore?
You’ve drunk its water
You’ve eaten its fish
Don’t you want to help the sea otters?
Take action
It’s not enough to make a wish
Fast Fashion to Ocean Pollution
Presentation created by Calla and Laine (USA)
Clothes account for up to 80% of all textiles entering our oceans each year. Not only do these items pollute the waterways and ocean, but they also affect the lives of marine life. People have found entangled sea life with plastic from fast-fashion clothing, threatening their overall health and life expectancy.
Enjoy our LOOK at this problem and how it is creating pollution in our oceans.
