reefs grown over centuries.They were plastic bags,stuck to the Aegean Sea floor since a waste site slid into
the water eight years ago.
A team of divers and environmentalists pulled thousands of plastic bags from the water near Greece’s
Andros Island this month.The workers described what they found as a “gulf full of plastic corals”.
Seas polluted with plastic have become one of the most shocking signs of human damage to the
planet.“It was a very scary thing to see,”said Arabella Ross,a volunteer diver with Aegean Rebreath.The
group carries out underwater and coastal clean-ups.“It really shook me and I think it really shook everyone
who saw it,”she added.
The Mediterranean is among the seas with the highest levels of plastic pollution in the world,the
World Wildlife Fund (WWF) said in a report in June.Greece produces about 700,000 tons of plastic waste
a year,or about 68 kilos per person.About 11,500 tons enter its seas every year.Almost 70% of that returns
to the Greek coast,one of the longest in the world.The sea pollution off Andros is thought to date back to
2011,when heavy rain caused a waste site to collapse.Most of the waste fell into the sea.
Aegean Rebreath divers removed blue,black and yellow plastic bags caught between reefs and among
fish.It was “like the paradise of the Caribbean Sea,where you find coral reefs everywhere of every colour.It
was the exact same thing,but instead of corals it was bags,”diver Arabella Ross said.
The team managed to remove only a small part of the plastic waste they found.They also pulled up
300 kilograms of old fishing traps—known as “ghost nets”—from Andros.In a separate operation in June
off Salamina,a small island near Athens,they removed two tons.
“If people are wondering where their rubbish ends up,we see it each time we go into the water,”Ross
said.
【语篇解读】日前,有人发现在希腊安德罗斯岛附近的爱琴海海域积累了大量的塑料垃圾。从
远处望去,潜水员仿佛看到了一个色彩缤纷、随着洋流缓缓流动的海底世界。它们是数万吨的塑料
废物,在这里堆积如山,形成了一种“珊瑚礁”。
