#1984: #Nena warned us in her #antiwar #song "99 red balloons" - nearly 40 years later the #Pentagon starts the #balloon war against #China 🎈 🔫 😱
Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiwgOWo7mDc
I counted 5 balloons shot down in the #news so 94 are left. Each #missle costs much more than the balloon so US will be out of missles and bankrupt before China starts the #invasion.

Biologist estimates helium balloons are ending up in Great Lakes by the hundreds of thousands - Ontario postdoctoral fellow, colleague found 380 balloons over 7-km stretch of shoreline
It is obvious that people are not getting the message that we have to stop releasing balloons:
Based on her calculations, she estimates about 2 balloons wash up on every kilometre of Lake Erie's 1,400-km shoreline each day.
"If you assume they wash up on the Lake Erie shoreline at an equal rate, it's possible that 960,000 balloons wash up on the Lake Erie shoreline every year," she said.
I think we need to just ban their sale entirely.
