Michael Phillips+FollowDecades-Old Trash Washes Up on Beach?!Imagine finding a rusty can on the beach that’s been drifting in the ocean for decades—literally! That’s what happened to a TikToker who found a 1950s-80s tobacco can from China washed up in South Carolina. Ocean currents can send trash thousands of miles, and some of it sticks around for years. Wild, right? Every piece you pick up helps, so next time you’re shell hunting, maybe grab some trash too. Who knows what stories it could tell? #Safety #BeachCleanup #OceanPollution50Share
gregorybrown+FollowRocket Debris Ruins Turtle Beach?!Imagine hitting the beach for some sun and finding rocket parts everywhere! That’s what happened in Tamaulipas, Mexico—plastic and metal from a recent launch washed up, right where endangered sea turtles nest. Locals say no one official is cleaning it up, just volunteers trying their best. People are furious, especially since baby turtles could mistake the junk for food. If you can launch rockets, shouldn’t you clean up after? Wild, right? #BeachCleanup #EndangeredSpecies #RocketDebris #News170Share
