Plastic scraps are strangling animals

Summary:
We're strangling the environment with our waste. This is what a young Canadian fisherman, Adam Turnbull, denounced through his facebook after finding a fish wrapped in a plastic band that had possibly been tied to the animal in the first months of its development. The photos reached thousands of people with the message to raise awareness about waste abandonment or littering, as it has become one of the most worrying environmental problems in much of our planet.

Analysis comment:
This article explains through the story of the fisherman Adam Turnbull  how we are destroying the enviroment.

Adam said on facebook that throwing trash on a garbage can is not that difficult and, if you don't find any, keep it in your pocket until you find one, but don't leave it in nature (countryside, seas, etc.).
For us it's effortless and, in this way, animals will be able to live freely and out of danger.

Stories like this one help to raise awareness about how important take care of our planet is, because some animals' lifes depend on humans. It is very simple, just by recycling and trying not to hurt animals with the actions that we do, it's enough.

The fact that this event has already reached millions of people gives hope that there are still kind people with others and with the environment, caring for the planet and disagreeing with the death of living beings because of humans, and even willing to do something about it. These are the people who, in my opinion, can bring this awful situation to an end.
