On the left, the cartoon recreates the standard food-chain diagram. The plastic rings complete the dark Anthropocene joke, suggesting that the fish will be destroyed by man-made detritus. But it doesn't end there... the natural food chain becomes an unnatural food chain, ending up in a plastic bag - the same plastic bag you probably just got from a quick trip to the store for something you didn't need -- emblazoned with a smiley face.
You think that you're going to be eaten by a bigger fish? Think again!
I picture myself as one of the fish... unaware that right behind me is a bigger fish... and behind that some other disaster waiting to happen... and behind that another disaster.
