One underappreciated fact about the ocean plastic problem is that plastic pollution is persistent in some places but not in others.

For most of the world's oceans, plastic only persists for a few weeks or months before ending up back on land. In our models, we see that 80% leaves the ocean again within a month and 97% within a year.

What this means is that, when we reduce the amount of plastic flowing into the ocean, we should see an almost immediate reduction in the amount of plastic in the ocean.

It also means that most plastic pollution you see is hyper-local. Unlike something like CO₂, countries and cities therefore have a "selfish" incentive to curb their plastic emissions. For example, want to eliminate plastic pollution in Bali's waters and coastlines? Then stop plastic from leaking from Bali's towns and cities!

Another consequence is that, for most of the world's oceans, there is no need to sweep the ocean surface; it cleanses itself once we stop putting new waste in.

The exception to this is the ocean garbage patches, where currents trap the plastic and keep the trash away from coastlines, preventing it from washing up.

This is why The Ocean Cleanup employs a two-pronged approach: intercepting plastic in rivers to stop inflow and cleaning up the legacy pollution in the ocean garbage patches.

@TheCinesthetic Once upon a time in Hollywood 🙄

There has been a lot of talk and controversy about the new WICKED movie.

All we can say is, the original Broadway version with Idina Menzel as Elphaba aka Wicked Witch of the West and Kristin Chenoweth as Glinda, from 2003 was truly brilliant.

@Jaberuski In the eighty’s we discovered magnets stuck to the screen of the tube tv. Basically destroyed the pixels and screen. We didn’t get a new TV but we heard about it A LOT as adults. 🤣

Plastic extraction #110 from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch - removing another 12,678 kg (27,954 lbs) of plastic from the ocean for good.

Our total plastic catch from the GPGP is now over 500,000 kg (1.1 million lbs).

@SussexHenryVIII I have no horse in this race as I’m watching from Canada…but I’m very very very nervous and I think that’s pretty accurate in telling which way this is going.

Why are Albertans totally fine with paying so much for electricity? Why elect a government that won't help with this stuff? The Quebec Advantage is so much better than the Alberta Advantage, apparently.
