"Mr President, when I was 21 years old, I used to travel in cruise ships which went from New York to the Bahamas and back. One starry, very romantic evening, I was standing with a girl towards the stern of the ship, stargazing as one does when one is 21 years old, when a stern porthole opened and all the ship’s waste was thrown out into the sea. Despite the fact that it was evening, the seagulls immediately arrived to feast on the refuse.
Twice as much harm was done on that occasion by dumping waste in the sea: it affected both the sea and yours truly. I therefore support this report which will prevent the dumping of waste in the sea."@en1
