Re:First 100k KG Removed from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch by jakecopp on Tuesday July 26, 2022 @04:45AM (#32235839)
Think of how much cheaper per kg it is to _prevent_ new plastic entering the ocean rather than pulling plastic from the middle of the ocean!

Why on earth are we pulling ~100s of kg while there is still 8.8 million tonnes entering the ocean each year?! [1]

aka Ocean Bound Plastic, I've seen a few products use it (but I don't know how to go about certification): https://www.hermanmiller.com/en_apc/better-world/sustainabil...
