#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.

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].

I bought a ceramic Hario V60 02 this morning to replace my plastic one... also, I found it at a small local indie coffee shop. Nice to support them!

Dim-witted fishing on Sawtell beach leads to entanglement of native bird
A small strip of coastal bush separates the beach from suburbia. Various wildlife still exists there. The Australian brush turkey (Alectura lathami) and wallabies try to survive in this small patch. Roaming dogs are allowed to chase the shorebirds and marsupials. At the main entry to the beach the native vegetation is eliminated to make way for more commerce and exotic weeds.
