Save jellyfish by polluting the oceans with plastic
100Save the trees, eat the beavers!

Be a rebel by also doing your best to avoid the trash in the first place.
66And most importantly, work to disassemble the systems that normalize and support the production of the wasteful and toxic materials we now call trash.
48Are you suggesting that we should burn down companies and factories? Cuz I'd never agree to meet you at a specific time and place so that we could disassemble the means of production and effectively delete entire toxic cogs of the economy.
In fact, tell me precisely where and when you plan on meeting so that I can definitely avoid you.

How do the turtles open the jars?
This is fucked up, the scientists ought to know turtles can’t operate jars.
58The answer seems obvious. Introduce the turtles to Kraft Mac and Cheese. Its better than jellyfish and still comes in a paperboard box.
46Mac and cheese? How do you not know turtles love pizza?
12The ones that moved to NYC, maybe. But no one likes soggy, salt-watered crust.

I can tell the jellies are on the right and that they're in the genus Aurelia. Seems like a skill issue

25Instructions unclear, I'm crying uncontrollably

Now imagine you're a hungry sea turtle.
I already do that every day. What's next?
24The soft calls of the quetzals wake you. You're finally free. The idea of ragebaiting and news of the American Election Cycle is nowhere to be found.
The warm Caribbean sun shines on your shell, maybe a bit too warmly. Time for a dip in the ocean and maybe a light snack.

I mean I can tell the jellyfish apart from the plastic bag in this example, so maybe those turtles just need glasses.
23You're outside the water now. You have get inside the water then try to find the difference.

It's really easy to tell the difference. The jellyfish is the one that hurts you immediately when you try to swallow it and the plastic bag is the one that causes problems in 1.5-3 minutes with catastrophic problems around 10 minutes.
21Lets make bags out of jellyfish!
15Save the turtles but fuck these jellyfish. we will just put them in a jar for our display.
13To be fair, we currently have an overpopulation of jellyfish due to both the decline of turtles and raising sea temperatures, so if anything, this is helping.
6That would hurt tho

Wow that's gotta be a record for fastest evolutionary change in response to man made disasters. Good work jellyfish!
12Instead of shooting up schools imagine if Americans shot up industrial sources of litter
12We had one of those near Buffalo NY.
It was totally unrelated to litter, but...

Thats alot of semen
11Turtle is ging to szay hungry. It can open neither of them, because it's missing those precious opposable thumbs.
11im all for getting rid of single use plastics and returning to sustainables like paper and glass. metals have their own issues like expense, and oxidation.
7Those sickos bottle up the food for the sea turtles and now they're gonna starve!
5The point is that they'll sell the bottles to the turtles. The turtles are gonna have to work to earn it. For dozens of millions of years they've been freeloading, receiving handouts from the sea. They're finally gonna contribute to the economy.

Also imagine being in the water with all those jellyfish the turtle didn't eat.
4bro if im hungry the last thing i want is a jellyfish
3I know right. Imagine the horror: you are about to eat a tasty platic bag, but you realize it's actually a jellyfish
2
People that litter are human trash.
2Easy. Replace the turtle with more plastic bags.
