欧美人文风情第256篇:用海洋垃圾打造时尚潮鞋（打印版）

We made an incredible, moldable, indestructible material. But when we dump it, it doesn't go away. 我们制造出一种不可思议、可随意塑形、坚不可摧的材料。但当我们将之丢弃时，它并不会消失。

Now one truck of it ends up in our oceans every minute. 现在每分钟有一卡车的塑料最后进到我们的海洋。

It's killing sea life. The fish eat the trash; then we eat the fish. 那正在扼杀海洋生命。鱼吃垃圾；然后我们再吃鱼。

We're feeding ourselves our own garbage, and it's now in our bloodstreams. 我们用自己造的垃圾喂养自己，而那现在流在我们的血液中。

We've got to avoid plastic; we've got to get it out of the ocean and reuse it. 我们必须避免塑料；我们必须将它从海洋中清出，然后重新利用。

Look. What if we took some trash and made a sports shoe out of it? 听着。假如我们用一些垃圾，然后用那做出运动鞋会发生什么事呢？

And then we made a million more from 11 million plastic bottles? 接着我们用一千一百万罐保特瓶再做一百万只运动鞋？

What if that was just the start? And what if everyone did that? 要是那只是起点而已呢？如果每个人都那样做会怎样？
