Having personally witnessed that vision, you are now in total dismay of the future that awaits humankind. You're starting to think that all of our efforts would just be wasted, it would later on just be the cause of our inevitable doom. You are currently sitting in your small, yet comfy dark grey couch on your living room, wearing your usual white pajamas and green sleeveless t-shirt, with the television turned on and showing news about the recent wildfires that just happened in California and Florida. Out of nowhere, sleep punched you right to the couch and you're starting to have a dream, yet another vision... Are you sure you want to know your dream? If no, then wake up to reality and fight it But if yes, then let us begin... •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• "The present is what binds the future, what we do today is the outcome of what would happen tomorrow. If a person plant a seedling, ultimately it would become a tree. But if a person throws plastic a day, then in a year, the environment recieves 2.5 trillion plastics thrown away. And you say that it's just one plastic... Such a pity" •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

    My entry for National Geographic's #planetorplastic short story challenge. The plastic forks we discard daily by the millions have a story that does not begin or end with their brief tenure as eating utensils. In fact, that part of their lifetime pales in comparison to the energy required to create and then dispose of them.

    Oceans are off-limits to the public, no longer safe due to plastic waste. Treasure hunters illegally trespass, desperate to catch their next break or at the very least pay for their next meal. Each time they go out, they risk their lives. This is a snapshot of what it is like to be a treasure hunter in the future and the dangers they face every day.
