Threats to dolphins

plastic bags, packaging, fishing gear and other synthetical materials. All these materials can be eaten by mistake or ingested as my crop plastics through out their lifetimes. areas usually have higher pollutant levels compared to animals in less developed regions. Among marine mammals dolphins usually carry the highest tissue residue levels. Oil spills: The effects of spilled oil vary depending on the species, the habitat, and the nature of the oil. Low molecular weight fractions are the most acutely hazardous within the first several hours or days following a spill. They can be swallowed while feeding or when a fouled animal is grooming, or their vapor can be inhaled and hurt the lungs. They irritate and harm tissues, especially the delicate membranes of the eyes and mouth. The liver, neurological system, and blood-forming tissues can all be attacked by light fractions once they have been absorbed into the circulation. noise pollution is a particular source of concern because dolphins rely on sound emission and detection for finding their prey, communication, and navigation. Overfishing as well dolphins themselves used to be hunted for meat, skin, bones and oil

Solutions to these threats

Try to use phosphate-free laundry and dish soaps, use fewer harmful chemicals and pollutants, and dispose of them properly. Don’t pay to swim with the dolphins, don’t pay to swim with the dolphins and write your legislators when you have an opinion about pending legislation on environmental, land use and other issues. Keep up the Reduce – Reuse – Recycle, Conserve water, waste not and fix leaks and  Become a Defender of Wildlife.

I don’t have an off shoulder top so I wanna want to make it also because I don’t see people wear this top.  If I make wanna designs to went as well if I have time to make it look pretty.

I need to find a knit fabric which I already found a cute grey fabric that I’m gonna use for my top that I’m making. I need to measure my size and follow the instructions in the bag it has steps on how to make it. Other people use a different fabric  they usually crop the top and make it short or make the sleeves shorter.

Long Term Inquiry (PROCESS)
If you made changes to your original plan, why? Have you had any struggles? How did you adapt?
This first picture it was suppose to look like this but I change it into this second picture because the collar was tight on me and it was really uncomfortable to wear. I saw an idea in Pinterest so I decided to do it without the collar. My struggle was the top was big on me when I tried wearing it would sag down so I ask for help on what I should to tighten it I stich the sides to tighten it.
