According to Seaspiracy, 45% of plastic in the ocean is fishing nets. Filtering a few rivers won‘t do much, you have to start with the fishing vessels, punish them for not returning their nets to shore, create fish tax and reduce overall consumption of fish or better, stop eating it alltogether. That‘s the most effective and frankly, the only actual way to win the war against plastic pollution.

Clean the oceans, definitely, and this appears to be working. NEXT: Potentially grind up what can NOT be recycled efficiently, pack it into a SpaceX Starship expended-able liner, then insert into a Starship body, launch the unit into the nearest fusion device – the Sun — keeping what can be returned to Earth and re-used.

Definitely a worthwhile endeavor to cleanup the environment that we all occupy. Just wondering why local governments aren’t contributing to this program, since it is in their interest to clean up their portion of the environment. I’m guessing there isn’t any money in this for politicians to skim off to perpetuate their political careers.

Maybe require the store/ manufacturer to take back their item at the end of its life cycle?

Let’s hope they figure out how not to have the plastic they collect end up back in the local refuge system that didn’t properly dispose of it in the first place, especially as they scale up.

People need to wake up. The amount of plastic and other rubbish in the world’s oceans is at alarming levels. Beaches in the remote north trip of Australia are absolutely littered with plastic much of which can be traced back to Indonesia. This is a great initiative but we need to be doing a lot more.

This is hopeful news but until we do something about “the supply” of pollution, the solution will never be able to keep up. If people continue to carelessly discard because “someone else will clean it up” that’s a plan that will fail.

What I don’t understand is why they chose to transform the plastic into short-term consumer products instead of plastic applications that are expected to bind up this plastic for a much longer time, preferably something that could benefit some of those low-income areas that are producing a lot of this waste.
Use it to create garbage cans for example, or weather protection for houses where building material is scarce.
That way the demand to have a local ocean cleanup could be much higher as it would create local jobs as well as supplying low income areas with Well needed resources.

Because the basic issue is that those countries are making messes and then expecting for us to pay to clean them up. If they disposed of their trash properly – this problem wouldn’t exist.
And there are much cheaper means of doing this also. One simple solution would be to create angled floating barriers across the rivers that divert the trash into diversion ponds where it can be scooped up by dragging smaller booms across the pond.

I think it’s great this is happening but why is this plastic getting in the rivers? We need to do a lot more to stop it at the real source.
Colin Campbell
April 24, 2021 at 11:54 pm
And what is the cost per ton of trash collected? And aren’t there plenty of cheaper and low tech alternatives? (Such as stringing floating booms across the problematic rivers in problematic countries and keep the stuff from getting into the ocean in the first place?)

Fine the countries which pollute. You lower their economy on the trade scale until they cannot afford to pollute, but can only afford to recycle the plastic. Money is a wheel that is supposed steer a country. It’s much too late to make machines to sieve the oceans and rivers while they come with truck loads to dump every day.
These countries which pollute the most also make a lot of things for export. Computers to cars, and clothes.
Malaysia, India, Singapore etc. Those countries are why there is an island size trash heap floating in that region. The reason why Thailand packed Tuna has plastic in the meat. Their actions poison everyone.
Africa gets the whip too.
You can go to Florida and catch bass in the storm drains.
The more money they have, the more they buy plastic with it. No houses, just plastic everywhere. Can only make computer parts, but not recycle plastic into bricks.
By making bricks with plastic, the plastic does not blow around and become a hazard. When it blows around, the fish have to eat because they don’t have hands to clean up after the supreme intelligence of a monster.

Most of that plastics came from the rich countries in the west. They cannot recycle it so they export it in South Asia. Plastic recycling is a big lie.
