    Mother would not feed her chick with plastic other than maybe small pieces for digestion usually they use small pebbles for digestion but will use any solid object around the right size. I would say that these pieces of plastic are maybe carried back for nest building.

      You said that for no reason. The birds are eating the plastics, you see the babies vomiting up large pieces, and plastic in the bodies of dead albatrosses

    I have made a comment before regarding such matter and it read "Humans are to blame. Something not most would admit" on a Blue Planet II video (Mothe pilot whale...) For at the time I already had an understanding that, pollution doesn't just affect your neighbourhood, it does not take an expert to know pollution travels, carried by winds and sea currents. What you dump right now in your street, will end up somewhere and take a life, it may be far or near.

      This is a lie, birds have two stomachs, one is called a gizzard, this stomach is used for grinding down the food. This bird instead of feeding its chick pebbles to put in it;s gizzard is using bits of plastic. So yeah this is pure propaganda as it is not feeding it plastic at all, it is giving it plastic so it can help it grind down it;s food.

    This is sad but I remember growing up toys, food and liquids such as milk containing more and more material for packaging and mainly cardboard and plastic, compared to what they used to, I just don’t think the current government care, streets are full of rubbish and roads full of potholes and more and more cars on the road. David Attenborough for Prime Minister I say

    This is why you should do your recycling if everyone recycle as much plastic as possible worldwide it would at least slow down the problem but the big multinational companies do need to stop putting so much packaging on things, even in the super markets now i see plastic covered on apples and bananas etc its insane! even when i opened a jar of honey the other day it still has plastic around the lid! whats the point of all this extra plastic... but people must recycle. so many folks in the block of flats i live in cant be bothered to recycle... we are the only ones who make the effort

      not using plastic is better idea rather than recycling. using steel, aluminium or ceramic instead is a good idea!

    • @skullsaintdead
      @skullsaintdead 6 років тому

      True, but we have no choice. Basically everything comes in plastic: bread, frozen food, shampoo, cleaning products, dog food, and there's no alternative not to use it. We should place a tax on plastic to discourage companies from using it and introduce a plastic bag ban (Western Australia, my home, will do this in July).

    Its funny we never see the plastic being regurgitated, it must be super rare in nature. This is like taking a bunch of dog toys putting it the ground and then saying man sparky really ate and shat all these objects.

    I hate to say this, but to any parents out there: I don’t care how much your kid begs, screams or pleads. Think of these albatross chicks every time he or she demands a plastic action figure or some other meaningless trinket made out of it. And then have the courage to say no.

      @leighd7747 5 років тому

      @iSOLACIUM Depriving a child of the toy they're throwing a tantie over is not "punishing" them (or you), it's basic parenting. Tantie should not equal reward.
      Not once did my parents buy me gifts from the toy rack (just christmases and birthdays) and my biggest peeve with them is NOT letting me play in the "fun" mud but the boring coarse sand, not the deprivation of the cheap plastic tiara from Shoprite. My parents themselves had NO toys but the shit they made themselves, and my dad is still a pretty good woodworker because of it
      Try not to make your children THAT materialistic at that young a age, just think about what you're using once in a blue moon and try to opt for eco-friendly options where you can, its not "all or nothing".
      "Thinking", and altering your lifestyle slightly here and there should not be seen as a "punishment", just suck it up ie. get used to the cardboard straws (like I had to)...at least they don't get stuck up sea turtles' noses
