In reading the book, Garbology, one gets a good picture of plastics and how they have gotten spread all over the world. It is really sad. Last night here in Dallas we had about an inch of rain all over the area. The creeks rose up to 3000 CFS from the 70 cfs it normally flows. I went out paddling today only to see the mile long line of debris coming into the lake from the creek. The sad part is that the day before was a clean up at the lake. Had this happened a day or so earlier, much of it would have been picked up. So now the lake is littered with plastic, Styrofoam, plastic bags, ice chest, etc.. And heres a strange thing, why is Styrofoam still being auto corrected to a Capital letter? isn’t it like tissue, Kleenex? Trash with a capital T. : (
