Matt sent me a link last night to a series of photographs (as seen on boing boing) taken from the middle of the Pacific Ocean. I must warn you, the pictures are graphic and gut wrenching if you give a shit about the world we live in. For the past couple of years, I have been obsessed with consumerism and how our collection (and disposal) of the stuff we consume is going to at some point in time consume us. And, these pictures are proof that the crap we throw away is destroying our world. So, if you think that all the talk about recycling, anti-consumerism, global warming, etc. is for the birds, go eat some trash bags and bottle caps, feed some to YOUR babies and let me know how it went.
