While I can appreciate the artistic and educational value in the recycling of the bottle caps picked up along the beach (Coastal Star, January 2025: Beach walker turns bottle caps into art), it should not escape acknowledgment that these are the result of a multitude of careless polluters of our beautiful beaches.

I, too, pick up trash not only on the beach but along the old road and A1A. It is disheartening to see how much trash pollutes our environment to the detriment of our water, flora and fauna.
