As I was browsing through my Facebook News Feeds recently, something distinctly creative caught my attention. It had a very intriguing concept, relating to a very real problem that our world has been dealing with for a while now.
A fish sculpture was constructed from discarded plastic bottles on the Botafogo beach at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The obvious message being driven here is recycling and reusing items to help create a sustainable environment, one where our activities do not harm the nature and our co-inhabitants.
It is known all around the world, that our seas are severely polluted and many marine animals are dying and close to extinction because of this. Many people choose to be ignorant of this. What really intrigued me was how they chose to portray this message - with a beautifully sculpted fish. These kind of pictures and messages are worth sharing. If we all did our part, a greener world is just within our reach. All we need to do is just throw our rubbish into the bins, and recycle what we can.
