Deadly Litter


When will we wake up to the fact that littering is one of the most destructive things people do to the environment? Plastic wrappers and bottle caps are deadly! Every fishing line cut and left in the water, every cigarette package wrapper thrown into a gutter, every plastic shopping bag blowing around an alley, every pint of dumped oil, ends up somewhere...usually in a surface water system. This recently-shot series of heartbreaking photos by Chris Jordan shows how deadly these seemingly insignificant pieces of litter really are, and how far they travel.
