A red-eared slider turtle with plastic tape on its shell sits on a rock at the pond. This is only a slight rep of one problem which Earth faces. The Great Pacific garbage patch, unprocessed trash, and emissions grow on a daily basis affecting the ecosystem. Pollution, uncharacteristic weather/climate change, and earthquakes arise. I'll never forget the doc where starving birds died from plastic. Let's cherish/save our home planet Earth. It's the only one we have. Restore the balance. Go green.
