Anyway- what we can do personally about plastic garbage is only small but at least the awareness of the problem can be addressed. There are people in La Manz who pick up the trash everyday of their stay in the town, the school kids do too with the school teacher on regular basis, I pick it up in my area and others do as well. It's all good but the problem is worldwide with the modern day overuse of plastic, check out the alarming videos. We are eating it in the sealife, breathing it in the air, and drinking it in our water. The latest one that alarms me is the poly micro beads in some skin cleansers and toothpaste. Now I read the labels! The town of La Manzanilla is so much better than it was 10 or 20 years ago. In fact all of Mexico is cleaner. I think that the awareness of the garbage problem is spreading to the new generation. But still, will the earth ever be totally clean again as long as us humans are here? I doubt it but all we can personally do is try to make it better.
