"What do you think when people say what you're doing is impossible?" I mean, we're the ones who made this impossible amount of trash. We source the materials, polymerize them, mold them and distribute them. It's not beyond us to recollect them. Nice job ocean clean up 🎉

This is a con job. Those ships collecting the garbage are generating pollution far in excesss of what they're supposedly 'fixing'. It is sad to see PBS give their seal of approval to this fraud.

Donated to these guys a few times since they were just starting out. Very nice to see PBS doing a piece on this project. I will keep donating and encourage others to.

Recently found Clean People laundry sheets. LOVE it after using for many months. NO huge gluggy liquid detergent jugs to throw away anymore for me!

they should have giant trash compactor and containers and sort it when they get back - more storage, longer time onsite, more efficiency

The key to cleaning up the pacific garbage patch is to clean up litter on land in the first place before it makes its' way via drainage ditches, streams and rivers to the ocean. The other effort should be to completely eliminate the manufacture of single use plastic and/or 100% recycle them.

Is there evidence that the fishing nets are coming from stream discharge rather than ocean fishing?

It is sad what we have done to the earth. Unfortunately I see people throwing trash out of cars all the time. 😢

while it's fine to do SOMETHING with the shredded plastic there's no way getting around that we need to stop consuming so much plastics all together. I've been following the ocean cleanup since the early years and while I still love the project it just reminds me of how we are avoiding taking the real and necessary steps as a species to prevent our ecosystems from collapsing further.

also: I want a youtube channel that just livestreams the interceptors that filter the garbage out of dense urban waterways and prevents them from entering the ocean. 1) it's satisfying to watch 2) it would raise awareness? Maybe?
