Pantry / Toilet

Here's a piece of reality guaranteed to make you nauseous and sick.
We treat our oceans as a combination pantry / toilet.
Our oceans are a great resource for much of our food,
yet we dump our wastes into the sea
polluting our pantry.
Eat from the toilet? Now that can't be healthy or cool.
