After watching this video if you're not asking yourself something like: What Can I Personally Do To Help Control and Clean Up This Huge Plastic Garbage Problem? - Then I'm going to have to ask you to watch it again.
In the video, Captain Charles Moore of the Algalita Marine Research Foundation talks about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch which is where a huge amount of our plastic that makes it to the oceans is going.
Captain Moore explains with graphic illustrations, why we have to take the responsibility for our actions, our inventions, and our earth. We have to deal with our plastic garbage problem right now.
Haven't you seen enough?

I try to re-use the buckets and plastic containers as many times as possible to start seedlings and cuttings, keeping the plants there till they need to be transplanted.

It's sad how we contribute everyday with this problem even if we try somehow to not bring more plastic to the house and recycle what we already have and trying to re-use it. But now-a-days almost everything comes packed in plastic. If you go to have a quick snack or dine out it's served on disposable plastic plates. I have asked these servers to use the same plate again if I go for a second portion. Every time the food comes back on a new plate! so at the end I always feel guilty! what can we do about it? Everyone needs to participate...countries where recycling isn't even a thought...or even those where this it's already being done. We have to get "recycling" into our brains to get the thought straight and really put it on practice. What if you don't find the recycling place to drop your plastic (here where I live I don't know where the recycling place is). What can we do about this problem?
