This richly illustrated book serves as the ideal guide to the items
that litter the world's beaches. Forget sea shells and other fauna
and flora. Here, you will find what a beachcomber is actually most
likely to encounter these days: glass, plastic, wood, metal, paper,
oil, and other sources of marine pollution! Complete with nearly
700 photographs, this guide shows the full range of marine debris
items, each presented with insight and a pinch of humor. In
addition, the author provides full details about these items. You
will learn everything worth knowing about them. This includes not
just their sources and decomposition stages. Discover the threat
each item poses to these beautiful environments as well as
prevention strategies, clean-up recommendations, alternative
products, and recycling and upcycling ideas. Beyond the aesthetic
issue, marine debris poses a threat to wildlife, human health, and
economic welfare. This book arms you with the knowledge you need to
combat these disgraceful and often hazardous eyesores. Become a
beach detective! Travel the world's most beloved tourist
destinations with this ultimate beach read and help restore these
fascinating environments to their natural beauty.
