Every day, we use plastic products. And where do these items go when
we are done with them?
When artist Angela Haseltine Pozzi found plastic trash polluting the
beach near her home, she took action. She formed an organization called
Washed Ashore and started gathering trash from beaches and using it to
create incredible sculptures of wildlife. These sculptures travel the
country to teach people about the importance of these animals--and the
problems caused by plastic pollution.
Author and photographer Kelly Crull highlights fourteen spectacular
sculptures, along with hints to find common objects hidden among the
debris. There's information about each ocean animal as well as tips for
how you can reduce your plastic use, hold a beach cleanup and make your
own plastic art. Be inspired to get creative in protecting the world's
oceans!
