Chile joins Nature and Plastic!

Bienvenidos, Welcome Chile to Nature and Plastic, the first South American country to join the umbrella project! Many thanks to @diegoalmendras for creating the Marine Nature and Plastic project for his country.

Chile has a lengthy coastline, 6,435 km, so it will be interesting to see what kind of marine observations of nature affected by plastic are added to the project.

For example, this amazing observation of a beautiful, colourful but threatened Red-legged Cormorant on an equally colourful but sadly plastic lined nest: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/31270934
