Better yet. Keep it in the boat. Then throw it way back on shore.

Ring around the rosies

Do likewise with your mask loops.

Been doing that for awhile now

I haven’t seen a six-pack of aluminum cans in years.

Thanks for this

If “recyclers” actually recycled them instead of just dumping their loads in the ocean…

Rather than putting the onus on consumers, the manufacturers should be made to discontinue this practice of using plastic immediately!

I read that the phrase ‘carbon footprint’ was created by an ad agency for a petrol company. Why can’t manufacturers create better packaging alternatives? It seems they’re creating the problem, and downloading the onus for a solution onto consumers.

Better yet, stop buying soda/beer with those things on them.

I’ve done this for years, but rarely need to, anymore. It takes only seconds, and will help the plastic degrade a little bit faster. I still hate them, though.

Anymore, I buy beer and soda that is packaged in cardboard.

Might try not throwing it overboard

I always snip the rings of my drink holders. However, as others have said, proper disposal beats tossing trash into nature any day.

Good Sunday Morning, Crew.

Good morning Crew.Reduce, reuse, recycle.

amen

I have been doing that for a long time too

great PSA

Refuse to buy drinks that use them.

This is one of my FAVORITE comics! I am so moved by the kindness that shows…..

Unfortunately turtles don’t communicate with each other – otherwise one turtle could easily chew thru the plastic ring that is stuck on another turtle. I don’t think mankind has to fear a vast turtle uprising any time soon.

Hi All, I ran a search and found the following . Based in Atlanta, Georgia, it’s a growing alternative to plastic rings. It’s a good (and easy) read.

Bury the crap in the landfill, not dump it in the ocean’s dummies!!!

Nice, but it would it kill Chip to draw a cartoon that sticks up for people with autism?

Yes
