This opened my eyes! It's something I came across on FStoppers and wish to pass on as it's a major issue and one that I have never heard about until now. More than likely, you haven't either. It's baby albatross dying on Midway Island (or Midway Atoll and is located in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands) because adult albatross are feeding their young plastic debris from The Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Please check out, and pass along, the works of Seattle photographer Chris Jordan in this powerful youtube video.
The photographs from the project can be found here on Chris Jordon's site.
And really, we should all check out The Great Pacific Garbage Patch on Wiki. I had no idea...Thank you, Chris.
