I could understand enlisted men being ignorant and misinformed. Being that naval aviators and flight officers are the smartest people in the Navy. I am surprised to hear you people say wood and metal are biodegradeable in the water. Metal is NON-ORGANIC, it is mined from ore deep within the earth, just like plastic which is a petroleum based product. If plastic is NOT biodegradable and NOT allowed in water, then why the heck is metal and glass allowed to be dumped overboard?
Do you think that your BS in women's studies means shit?
I'll have you know that on earth day I save up all my plastic soda can holders, tie them together, and then throw them in the sea, along with all my other fellow misinformed, ignorant children.
Thanks [Sherlock], without a college grad like you, I would have never known where metal and plastic came from.
Edit: Sorry A4, I'm late to the BBQ, I read that statement and didn't even check to see if anyone else had responded.
As I was.
