Alone With My Thoughts, photograph of an ape in captivity by Kat O'Neill. All Rights Reserved. I worked on campaigns for Wildaid for years but now that I live in East Hampton I walk the beach with my nine year old son picking up plastic bags, deflated balloons and other garbage so the sea turtles don't mistake the debris for jellyfish. Often we fill up 3 giant Hefty bags. Impressive and sad at the same time.
