Fishing Boats Killing Our Ocean
by Gerry Rasmus
(Thailand)
Left Behind
We found this floating close to the shore line, One of many things cut loose or tossed overboard from fishing boats. Also oil containers, Garbage in general, rather then bringing the waste back to shore.
Lazy uncaring people just out for the fast $ and the hell with tomorrow. Larger fines and more eyes need to be in and around our waterways.
We are all in this Neighborhood Together. We (ALL) need to do our part, Pick up after others, Set examples, Educate, Educate, Educate, Teach the children and Teach your neighbor to teach his neighbor. (NOW) Is the only time there is. Time is running out.
Removing this took 5 of us over 400 pounds of floating death. It Kills fish, breaks props on boats ships or stops them, it takes divers to remove. Don't wait for someone else to take care...Reach out and make a difference no matter how big or small. The powers above knows of our efforts and the rewards are priceless.
We are only as good as our last performance.
