#PlanetOrPlastic
The short story here describes a journalist who gets a chance to explore the Caribbean sea but is regretful and heartbroken seeing the scene, feeling guilty and ashamed of himself being called a human.
The world is changing... Human...
A dreadful scene was caught at the Caribbean Sea off the coast of the Santo Domingo. Piles of Plastic covered the sea and was seen as a dumping ground of plastic without a single drop of water seen on the surface. It was tragic. We tried to remove the pile of plastics from the surface of the sea but to our horror, we saw the most dreadful site ever. There were dead bodies of aquatic animals which moved to the surface as we removed the plastic from the top. What have we done? We killed them. The creatures I care for so deeply were being killed, choked to death due to human waste, this was devastating.

We sent one of the divers to go under the water to see the situation. In less than 10 minutes he returned because he was suffocated. "It was dark down. Not a single beam of light could get in, to light the sea water. There were many dead animals down there but only a few small fishes were alive."The diver said. It was a shame to see such a situation but It woke up my senses.
It's never too late. We can still try to change what we have done wrong. There are still many we could try and save only If we limit our use of Plastic. It will take time to adjust but If you try there is not a thing in the world which is Impossible. There is always an alternative to things. If one tries the other follows and always remember "Be the Change you want to see in the world!"
But If you still want to be selfish and live your life in your way. Then Imagine this If instead of water the plastic would be floating in the air surrounding you, intoxicating the air and making difficult for you to breathe. Every time you breathed you choked making it difficult for you to survive. Would you still use such a thing that will endanger your life? Would you still want to live in a surrounding where you would die any minute?

They are not different from us. They are also living being how we are. Without them, there is no us and without us, there is no them. We have a bond with everyone in the world and we ought to maintain it. Humans are always disturbing the ecological balance which in return will harm the future generations. "Dear Future generations, We are sorry that we didn't care about you and leaving you to live in such a destroyed planet." Do you want your last words to be this for future generations? I want it to be a special bond.

I wiped the tears from my eyes as I entered my report on my blog. I wished that after reading this, people would change.
