LAHORE -Bali is known as a beautiful spot for a winding off vacation. People rush to their beaches to feel rejuvenated. The beaches are indeed breathtaking.
Have a look at the beauty that it was till few months ago.
It is shocking to see how unrecognizable the beach of Bali looks here in the latest photos.
Indonesia is among the worst contributors to plastic pollution, with 200,000 tonnes of plastic washing into the ocean, according to a study published by the journal Nature Communications in 2017.
The issue is at its worst from December to March with seasonal winds and heavy rain forcing the rubbish to accumulate on the beach.
“In 17 years, I never saw a situation like this. The amount of plastic is unreal. Unreal,” a witness says.
