All Art Work created from trash taken from the oceans.
180,000 tons of plastic trash is dumped into the oceans every year.
Now on display at Reiman Gardens on the Iowa State University Campus in Ames, Iowa

I wish it was done everywhere (using the trash).

Interesting, also showing all the species directly threatened by it!

Excellent -- recycling and photos!!
Of course it would be displayed in Iowa - the ocean view is spectacular there!

Excellent series. Seems rather strange this is in Iowa, though. Would have thought it would be done along the coasts.

There have been 66 Washed Ashore Sculptures created. This is just a sample. Reiman Gardens is the first Public Garden to sponsor a display. Others will be seen around the country in the future. Hopefully they will cover the country with these displays. Less than 10% of the plastic trash created in the world gets re-cycled. We all could do better.

Absolutely fantastic art work, 4uiprnt, and I'm thankful there are people like you around who care about our oceans!

I didn't collect the junk or create the Art, I just took the pictures and couldn't resist passing them along. Thanks for taking a look.
