  1. #Hawaii is turning #ocean #plastic into roads to fight pollution
    An island #recycling program is designed to solve the islands’ unique exposure to discarded fishing gear, tourist waste and the #GreatPacificGarbagePatch, which engulfs the island chain every few years. To date, 90 metric tons of plastic trash have been removed from the #Pacific Ocean, and more than a metric ton of fishing nets alone have been paved into Hawaiian roads.

  6. The #GreatPacificGarbagePatch is a #plastic #trash nightmare. It is also part of a much bigger, problem.

    Out in the #PacificOcean, between #Hawaii & #California, is the Great #Pacific #Garbage Patch, a swirl of #PlasticTrash >2X the size of Texas. As pieces of plastic tumble against each other, they break down into particles tiny enough to be borne aloft on the wind [& inhaled].

  16. I love LLMs and use them almost every day. Every new version fills me with happiness and curiosity. But honestly, I can’t stand the endless photo and video generation. After #Sora2, I feel like the internet will be flooded with digital junk. It’s like we’re building a virtual Great Pacific Garbage Patch, and I feel sorry for all the energy wasted on generating and storing this garbage.

  37. @incrediblemelk Ha, do you watch the ocean clean up people pulling plastic out of the rivers and the great pacific garbage patch? They have interceptors all over the world. I find it incredibly satisfying to see people doing great things.

  40. How nice would it be to clean up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch…?

    If the numbers in the video are true it’s almost laughably cheap and quick (on a global scale) to do it. Let’s go!
