Making art out of ocean debris and plastic pollution (2)

Plastic debris can wash up almost anywhere. And now, it’s landed at the Smithsonian National Zoo.

Pictured are people viewing the ‎Flash the Marlin‬ exhibit from the Washed Ashore Project at the ‪‎Smithsonian National Zoo‬ in Washington U.S. June 3, 2016.

The Washed Ashore Project collected the debris from the Oregon coastline. The exhibits were put on display to raise awareness of plastic pollution’s impact on the environment.
