This is incredible.

This machine is capable of cleaning up 100 million kg of plastic ocean waste, and as of 2025, it has already collected about 500,000 kg of plastic.

It aims to remove 90% of ocean plastic by 2040.

HOLY SHIT and I don't say that very often...

At the behest of the water industry the Department for Works and Pensions has deducted £22.4 MILLION from people's Universal Credit payments simply to pay arrears to water companies.

The arrogance and greed of these companies knows no bounds exploiting the most vulnerable in society and who the hell in DWP authorised this nonsense?
