Well, I have hardly anything to say on this subject. I spent most of Saturday on my hands and knees picking bits of Styrofoam® out of the grasses at the edge of the harbor during the twice-a-year Salt Marsh Cleanup sponsored by the Friends of Liberty State Park. This garbage breaks down rapidly under exposure to UVs and the bits get smaller and smaller, so much so that they become impossible to remove from the environment and end up in the stomachs of birds and fish.
Not one of the items pictured above existed when I was growing up. Somehow we managed without them. There has got to be a better way!
