Human Error! (The impact of new trends in exploitation)

Reflection

The modern era is defined by the rapid development of technologies. It’s a gift but also a disaster when we become very greedy and exploit nature. I describe a television-headed man as a symbol of the current trend, the mukbang “all you can eat” trend. The stove represents global warming that boils the bowl of the aquarium, which is a small form of the ocean ecosystem. We add some instant seasoning that forms as plastics in the ocean. We have to increase our social awareness, especially among the younger generation. I believe that if we don’t have the power to reduce ocean pollution yet, at least we can try not to worsen the problem. Let’s do the smallest and simplest things first by reducing food waste, not using disposable plastic, recycling, and spreading messages about rescuing the ocean using social media.
