Sea Turtle Hospital Left

i don't know if it's a thing in the US but the poor sea turtles are one of the reasons we don't have plastic straws in Aust (or at least our state, if not most of the states here) anymore. You can't unsee some stuff and i thought for ages before they banned them that if cigarette packaging has to use real life images of the detrimental effects of smoking as warnings and awareness raising that companies and venues should have put sea turtle images on plastic straw dispensers (but they never did). Anyhow, i agree with your definition of heroes and i love the mixed media pocket style you have going here!

@bellbird Justine my son did a speech on plastics and how bad straws were for animals. Some people thought he was nuts, but like you said, the pictures left a lasting impression on him, and he wanted to tell people about it.
