13132595. Mask and surgical gloves on top of urban sewer grid
Mask and surgical gloves on top of urban sewer grid. Single-use masks, gloves and bottles of sanitizer shielding us from the spread of COVID-19 are ending up on the streets, in the seas and among wildlife. The coronavirus crisis is producing more and more waste that is either contaminated or not economical to recycle, and would be even if the recycling infrastructure was still running at full capacity.

From Streets to Seas - The Unfortunate Journey of COVID-19 Waste
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the aftermath of a global crisis as everyday heroes don their masks and gloves to protect themselves from the invisible enemy. However, little did we know that these single-use shields would find themselves atop an urban sewer grid, symbolizing the unintended consequences of our fight against COVID-19. As the pandemic rages on, discarded masks, gloves, and bottles of sanitizer have become ubiquitous sights on our streets. But what happens when they make their way into our seas? This snapshot serves as a stark reminder that our efforts to combat one problem can inadvertently create another. The image captures nature's unfortunate encounter with human waste; marine wildlife now finds itself entangled in a web of contamination. These once pristine waters are now polluted by microplastics and other hazardous materials associated with this respiratory syndrome. While recycling infrastructure struggles to keep up with the surge in waste production during these challenging times, it becomes clear that finding sustainable solutions is paramount. We must confront this global problem head-on before it further jeopardizes both marine life and our own well-being. Let us not forget that even amidst chaos, there is hope for change. Together, we can navigate through this pandemic while minimizing its impact on our environment. So next time you dispose of your personal protective equipment (PPE), remember: proper disposal ensures a cleaner future for all living creatures who call Earth home.
