Fiona Fish had gorgeous blue and green fins that made her glow even in the darkest depths of the ocean. She spent her days swimming near the ocean floor, talking in bubbles to the other fish. Fiona Fish loved her relaxing life in the water, but she was afraid that it wouldn’t last because of the humans and their terrible behaviors.
At the top of the water, there were plastic bags floating and turning Fiona Fish’s ocean home into a garbage dump. She was good in science and knew that soon the plastic bags would not float anymore. Instead, they would sink into the water and invade her home with poisonous chemicals. All the fish and coral were frightened of these plastic bags and tried to swim away, but there was no place to escape to. Even when they swam miles away, there were still plastic bags floating and then sinking in a scary cycle of destruction.
One day, all the sea creatures gathered for a meeting to discuss how to solve the problem of the plastic bags. Wally Whale was one of the smartest members of the group, so everyone listened to him. Yet even Wally Whale couldn’t think of a good solution. It seemed that the plastic bags were in control, and only the human beings could stop them.
The whale said, “My friends, there is only one answer, and it has nothing to do with us.” The group looked at him with eyes filled with hope. “It is up to the people! They need to stop throwing their garbage into the ocean, and then we will have clean water for our children again.”
“But how do we stop them? We don’t speak their language,” Fiona Fish said, feeling desperate and terrified.
“Maybe when they see us dying, then they will stop littering everywhere,” Wally the Whale said, but he didn’t feel much hope either. People already knew the sea creatures were dying, and they kept littering anyway. Every season, it seemed that there was more plastic in their home, so much that it was difficult to see their food and their friends.
The group ended the meeting and swam in different directions, looking for a safe place. But there were none to be found. Above the water, humans were munching on snacks and tossing used bags and empty water bottles into the ocean. The humans knew that what they were doing was wrong, but they still did not put their trash where it belonged. They didn’t consider Fiona Fish or Wally Whale in their selfishness.
Below the filthy surface of the water, Fiona Fish and her friends did their best to navigate the waste. Deep in their hearts, though, they knew that one day the plastic would overtake them if humans didn’t change their actions.
