PLASTIC OCEANS ! What can be done to resolve this looming disaster ??? From Alison Cook, The Story of Stuff Project Hi Alan, I spent almost a third of my summer on a sailboat the middle of the North Atlantic on a research expedition looking at plastic pollution in our oceans. We are still awaiting the official analysis of the dozens of samples we trawled onboard, but our preliminary analysis suggests that every single sample we took, from Bermuda to Iceland, contained tiny bits of micro-plastic. Every sample. Yet, in the face of this, I feel a renewed sense of optimism and confidence that plastic is not an intractable problem. There are solutions to be had and we are headed in the right direction to realize them.
