That website needs recycling.
Off you pop into the sea then to pick it all up.Anyway the plastic issue seems one we could easily deal with. We have a large amount of waste plastic, and ever decreasing amounts of energy thanks to people insist we fill the National Grid full of 17th Century technology. If only there was a way to square that circle.

Oh.
Yeah. And all of the worlds plastic, which is spread across the globe - including microplastics in the arctic - and bring it back to those two plants in Spain. The whole world's millions-of-tonnes excess.Off you pop into the sea then to pick it all up.

Oh, and pull it out of the plankton? Maybe you can get 'em to throw it up into a skip or something...
When you look around (walk down a high-street, into a supermarket etc) - then the ubiquity of plastic as a substance that we use (especially frivolous use) is a huge issue.Though ultimately when you look around it still seems the basic inability of people to use bins is also a problem.
To be fair, these are the Job posts I love. The ones so utterly retarded that you actually laugh out loud.I... I... what?

It should be a much more severely controlled substance.
Imagine if the oceans were freshwater and we started throwing salt in them.
Everyone would lose their shit, you're killing the planet!!
Well salt didnt benefit the oceans..it just changed it.Apart from they aren't freshwater and salt is natural whereas plastic isn't and won't benefit the oceans in any way shape or form if it keeps finding it's way in to it.
So some fucker came along and dumped loads of salt in the freshwater oceans and everyone was up in arms about how dangerous it was going to be if they didn't do something about it? I must've missed that lesson at school.Well salt didnt benefit the oceans..it just changed it.
There are plenty of 'plastics' that occur naturally...tree resins etc are forms of what we call plastic.
Im just pointing out that life adapts...it may seem 'wrong', but its actually philisophical...is automating slaughter of billions any less wrong than filling the oceans with plastic dust and making nature evolve to cope.
No they're fucking not. Not even close. If you ever studied organic chemistry at school you'll know that the hydrocarbons require polymerisation - just like oil does - to become plastic.tree resins etc are forms of what we call plastic
Unconsciously incompetent. Nailed on years ago.Do you realise how fucking stupid what you're saying is? You must realise...

No. It's resin. Rubber is rubber.Isn't that rubber?
