These Surfrider Foundation Sea Animal 2010 ads depict gruesome images of humans throwing garbage at bloody sea animals. Disturbing to look at? Yes. Necessary? Entirely. The set of ads demonstrates the effects of our mindless littering, and the huge impact one jug of milk could have on ocean life.
The ads take me back to an ancient episode of 'The Simpsons,' where Lisa tried to save the sea animals from the death grip of plastic soda pop rings. These Surfrider Foundation Sea Animal ads, although vivid, do much the same thing: Make you think about the impact your garbage has on others.
