IF THIS DOESN'T MAKE YOU SICK, NOTHING WILL

You won't often find me jumping up and down about environmental issues, basically because they were politicized under the Obama administration.  So, while I'm not one to wave the flags of global warming, I've seen some things in recent years that really do concern me.  

Native Americans have, by-and-large, always striven to leave the planet a better world than it was when they got here.  So, I was astonished and totally dismayed to see the piles of rotting rubbish they left behind at their encampment near the Standing Sioux Reservation after the pipeline protests there ended.  

In more recent weeks, however, a more imminent threat to our planet has emerged along the shores of our worldwide oceans.  Take a gander at this video: http://www.foxnews.com/science/2018/08/14/waves-garbage-crash-ashore-in-stunning-footage.html

Added to that visible, sickening pollution are the unseen globs of spilled oil, untold tons of raw sewage from ships, boats and shoreline cities, and the types of garbage that sink to the ocean floors as opposed to becoming floating debris fields such as the one depicted in the Philippines.  

We humans simply have to put a stop to this.  

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
