When we went to the National Zoo in July there was an exhibit of animal art made out of trash that was found in the ocean.

These were scattered throughout the zoo.  There were several near the entrance.  I heard one kid ask her father tentatively if there were any animals in this zoo that weren’t made out of trash.

It is a good reminder that our oceans are drowning in trash.  Want to find out more about that?
