Reading this article made me absolutely sick to my stomach. Sure, there are some alarmist positions taken here, but, thats not exactly a bad position to take as every bit is also true. Apparently, we’re ingesting a lot of very, very toxic chemicals, and rather frequently. Worse though than what we’re doing to ourselves, is what we’re doing to the planet. Now, we’ve discovered how natural processes can aggregate all these waste materials. The really depressing thing: I can’t seem to make a change in my own life as far as not using plastic… its EVERYWHERE — the keys on this keyboard, the mouse, parts of this chair, the case of the PC and the monitor, the cup next to me, its lid, etc, etc.

If you haven’t noticed, you should. And to do so, you should really take some time out and have a look at Chris Jordan’s website. His art is our destruction, and it speaks very powerful messages. His pictures help expose these types of unseen, natural disasters. Chris Jordan’s site is right here, and has been linked on the blogroll for a while. Since looking at it, I’ve been researching more, and more cases along this line. I hope to find a way to change how I live my own life for the better, and maybe it could help inspire you to do that too.
