A trash tsunami hits the beaches of Omoa in Honduras, and the beaches are full of trash. On September 19, local time, a wave of garbage raged in a video on the beach in Omoa, Honduras.
The beaches are not filled with fine sandy beaches and fish, but with all sorts of stinky trash such as plastic bottles and styrofoam. Sunny children were also spotted playing with fluttering garbage as toys.
A pile of trash pulled from neighboring Guatemala struck with a tsunami, and Omoa Beach was quickly turned into a trash dump.
"This trash came from the Motagua River in Guatemala. It's really shocking," said Lilian Rivera, an employee of the Honduras Environment Department. . "We are asking the authorities to take action so that this disaster can be resolved more reliably," he said.
Omoa mayor Ricardo Alvarado warned that "I can't just watch other countries are doing such serious damage to Omoa Beach." I did. He said, "It is already a desperate situation with Corona 19, but now I can't see the front because of trash."
The Honduras government sent a letter of protest to the Guatemalan government and called for immediate action to stop marine debris.
