Plastic is forever. Recycle, Recycle, Recycle

I was reading an article in the Sierra Club magazine.  And to shorten the story, it said that plastics just keep breaking down smaller and smaller.  you may think they have decomposed because you can't see them anymore but there they are serving as fillers in the food wild animals eat.  Microscopic bits of plastic eaten by fish which are eaten by birds and.. you get the idea.  My friend won't read these articles, says they come off as doomday, end of the world news and we can't really do anything about that part.  Well, yes.  But I say that we can use the information scaled down and make us aware of how important it is to pick up that bottle we see in the gutter on our daily walks.  Even the ones without a deposit. 

I carry a bag and pick up all plastic and metal when I walk.  Heavy metals also stay in the land forever.  Pick up that crushed soda or beer can and put it in the recycle box.  It is the responsible thing to do.  Thank you, thank you very much.
