    Blue Whale, the ocean's friendly giant, was swimming in the deep sea. His large body glided smoothly, leaving ripples on the water's surface.

    He noticed small fish swimming among the plastic waste. Some were even getting entangled. Blue Whale's kind eyes filled with sadness and determination.
