Coral Bleaching. 90% of heat released on Earth is absorbed by the Ocean, making it the most accurate measurement of climate change. Recently, temperatures have been rising astronomically, with the past 5 years having been peaks at their time of average water temperature. The rise in heat per second of the water on Earth is equivalent to 5 Atomic bombs exploding. Think about that for a moment, 5. Take a look at this picture, white here is not a sign of life, but of high temperatures genuinely killing the reef. Millions of years form a reef, to be destroyed in a matter of months in places. Once dead, no life can be supported on it. This is solely due to temperature rise, occurring due to the rising use of fossil fuels and the Earth’s resources to feed our increasingly throwaway culture. Take your stand today by saying no to plastics, products made mainly from burning of natural resources, which release massive amounts of heat. | Picture per Guardian Environment section |

Plastics are an increasing cause of concern to wildlife due to potential sources of chemicals which disrupt hormones and affect the growth and reproductive success of wildlife. Cocktails of pollutants called endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have shown reproductive problems. A pod of killer whales off the west coast of Scotland known to have high levels of pollutants have failed to produce a single calf in 25 years showing the drastic effects plastics are having on wildlife.
