Littering on the beach. Too many people just throw their trash on the beach for someone else to clean up. Well no one will clean it up.It gets washed into the ocean where sea creatures can get to it. Then come along some innocent dolphins interested on whats lying in the ocean. They start playing with it and suddenly they get trapped in the trash. they could get badly hurt or even die.
