The new crown pneumonia epidemic continues to spread, and everyone wears a mask when going out. A recent foreign ecologist Gary Stokes found a huge increase in garbage during a field visit to the Hong Kong Sorren Islands.
Many of the masks floating on the sea were washed onto the beach, which may have an inestimable impact on the entire environment.
Gary is the director of OceanAsia, a marine ecology research organization, and has been working with the team on marine litter and microplastics issues recently.
During his field trip during this time, he found that a new batch of garbage was washed onto the beach, including many plastic bags, plastic bottles, and many masks.
Gary said that there is no way to guess how many masks at sea become garbage, and the environmental health problems are unknown.
In the final analysis, the total amount of garbage today is too large, and some of the garbage is not processed in time and flows into the natural environment.
Everyone should pay attention to epidemic prevention and wash hands frequently. Do not throw away any kind of garbage into the natural. You don’t need it so do they.
