Trash making it into the oceans is bad. Here is someone who is trying to do something about it.
TeaSeas is actually working to remove trash, to keep trash out of the Oceans and with luck maybe address the source, at least some of it.
80% of the plastic flowing to the ocean from rivers comes from just 1% of the rivers.
This is the video for This Robot Eats Trash.
The companion video is of the beach clean-up. I Cleaned The World’s Dirtiest Beach.

ReplyDeleteThen wouldn't it be Smaht to get something going IN those rivers? Maybe some kinda patrol and deal with the polluters? I don't know which rivers and maybe it's very difficult to accomplish, but a twenty percent drop in plastic flowing out of the 1% of the rivers would be an appreciable step forward.
