In honor of World Oceans Day, GayTravel brings you inspiration with this song by singer and songwriter Jack Johnson who lives on Oahu in Hawaii. The song "Fragments" was released in 2018 as part of the short documentary "The Smog of the Sea." The "Fragments" in the song's title refers to what "the fog of microplastics that permeates the world’s oceans" as described on thesmogofthesea.com. The documentary brings awareness about how trillions of nearly invisible plastic shards make their way up the marine food chain. As they say, you can clean up a garbage patch, but how do you stop a fog?
At GayTravel, we've rounded up over 60 facts about plastic pollution and you mind find these statistics staggering when you read Plastics in the Ocean. The more you learn, the more it will make you want to do something about it!

Fragments on the sea
Birds of prey above

Secrets that we keep

Why can't we relate

Up when it's too late
What we used to be
What we will become
Words we cannot see
Breaking up by one, by one
Slowly we felt under a spell
One by one
Slowly…
