Plastic pollution pervasive

We somehow need to come up with a better way to clean up all the plastic bits floating in the ocean:


Global efforts to clean oceans have failed

"More than 6 million tons of plastic wash into the seas each year, floating on the surface or trapped below the surface. The U.N. Environment Program says that, on average, around 18,000 visible plastic parts are floating on a square kilometer of ocean."

Ugh.
