i witnessed the worst ocean pollution i have ever seen when visiting a beach at the "southernmost point of the United States." the water slapping the shore is covered with pieces of floating plastic. thankfully, the plastic grocery bags have been outlawed there. I saw someone in that area fishing with a plastic bag attached to their fishing line. sick! once, at the transfer station the ground was covered with hundreds of dead fish. Hawaii is way overfished by tourists and others. why can't people learn to enjoy activities that don't involve death and destruction!
