When environmental photographer Caroline Power ventured into the Cayos Cochinos Marine Reserve off the coast of Honduras, she came across a shocking scene– from horizon to horizon, grimy bands of plastic trash floated in the water. Plastic utensils, boots, food containers, and random bits of plastic infiltrated the water. She captured the scene in a series of photos, depicting the scale of plastic pollution in the #Caribbean Sea. An estimated 8 million metric tons of plastic enter the oceans each year and if current trends continue, there will be 12 billion metric tons of plastic waste in the world by 2050.
