Human Nature

Each day mil­lions of pieces of new plastic end up into our oceans. We all have seen the drastic pic­tures of drown­ing turtles and dead anim­als with stom­achs full of trash. We all know, that lit­ter­ing the world will become an even big­ger prob­lem in the near future. Non­ethe­less I can some­times not avoid  see­ing trash as beau­ti­ful or even as part of nature.

Nature does not judge. Nature absorbs, trans­forms and spreads lit­ter like every oth­er sub­stance or mater­i­al that gets into its cycles. Nature does not know time. We have to be aware of the fact that trash is every­where, even if we do not see it at first sight.

Pre­sum­ably our waste lasts longer than homo sapi­ens.
