That is too bad he didn't temper his language. I understand his frustration however, the situation is pretty bad. However to get the message across it's imperative that the messengers don't discredit themselves in the eyes of those for whom that sort of thing matters. It doesn't to me (the language that is), however, that said, it's something I can't show my 4 year old.

The Pacific plastic patch is an incredible tragedy unfolding in front of our eyes. The Midway atoll is home to albatross who are dieing en masse due to plastic poisoning, they mistake the flotsam for food and eat the plastic and eventually they die. The islands are littered with corpses of birds with plastic in piles of what used to be their intestines.

More or more products are using plastics and more and more packaging involves plastics of some kind.

The Pacific plastic patch is literally, without word of exageration, a crisis of epic proportions.
