Reflection
Picture your dream location and ask, “Why do you want to visit this place?” Is it because of the beautiful ocean landscape right outside your hotel room? Now picture this place layered in trash, marine life covered and dying in oil. Would you still want to visit this place? Probably not. You would most likely wonder why your dream vacation looks like an apocalyptic scene, a natural place of wonder that has been terrorized and eradicated by something. Our hunger for convenience and our desire for the new and latest gadgets is that something. We have become terrorists to our own planet.
