Re: Happy Birthday!
thousands?
many many thousands?
on the other hand, probably balloons are far down on the list of impacts to wildlife, probably more aesthetic than anything else
interesting there's a website about this
yeah, I thought latex would eventually degrade but takes a long time
we need to develop plastic that degrades better

No kidding. In fact, I'd say the only reason most of these were still out there was because they weren't on trails.Bosterson wrote: ↑January 8th, 2020, 7:47 amWhat makes you think these were all found on trail?bushwhacker wrote: ↑January 8th, 2020, 7:01 amOne wonders with all of these posts of found balloons along the narrow corridors for hiking trails how many more are out there off trail.
