Blogger Who Went Viral With Bali Beach Trash Video Welcomes Plastics Ban

Storyful

Blogger and traveler Jordan Simons scored a viral hit in December when he punctured the myth of Bali’s tropical paradise with photos and a video showing a rubbish-strewn beach on the Indonesian holiday island. At the start of the new year, he returned to his blog to discuss the strong reaction to his images. “I like to think it went viral because of the strong message behind it and the impact it had all over the globe, showing a problem that is largely ignored when it comes to talking about ‘paradise’,” he wrote. While Simons admitted the impact of any viral video is hard to quantify, he did celebrate the ban on a number of kinds of single-use plastics that has been introduced in Bali since he posted his viral images. “That is amazing news and we’ve already seen most of the cafes and restaurants here using bamboo straws and we are now being offered non-plastic bags at the supermarket. It’s a massive step in the right direction,” he wrote. Credit: TheLifeOfJord via Storyful
