Ever since they invented chemicals for farming, irrigation, even the simple detergents when you wash your cars down, the leftover always seems to run down the drain and into the sewers, lakes and rivers and oceans. We are gradually killing the marine life with the stuff. …I think in the near future as it shows in this art work the water is never going to be blue-green again. … We don’t care, we will still use the ocean for our sporting activities like boating and water skiing.
