Did you know that when helium balloons are released into the air they are often blown into the ocean by strong winds. The sea may be hundreds of miles away but balloons can still land there once they start to lose their helium. Once a balloon lands in the ocean, the salt water washes off a balloon’s color. A balloon without red, blue, or yellow color looks clear or transparent. Sea creatures mistake these colorless, clear balloons for food. The clear balloons then get stuck inside of these animals and cause all sorts of internal problems that usually result in starvation and death.
