Charles,

I am 61 with time to give back to this planet.
I have a 40′ monohull based in Oriental NC.
Are you aware of something equivalent to what you do on the East coast.
May be there is an existing network of boats helping to clean in the US.
Do you need help among your fleet?
Sorry, many questions… just want to be an activist instead of watching and talking about it.

Kind regards

Philippe

I would sign up to help clean this up, it is affecting our whole crilce of life, starting with what we need water! Maybe if we were to put an effort into cleaning this up and use plastixs way way less, maybe our environment will heal the damages that we have caused. Gotta start somewhere! why cant ships take a load or two from the clean up crew if they were to pass by? What about military vessels? Any ship able to transport while a crew cleans out the water? These poor animals who dont know any better are feeding on the plastic and we are just allowing it!! I always see trash on the beaches and pick it up! These beaches need regulatory clean up crews to stop the pollution further!! And if we have to put a safetynet to catch trash before it hits the ocean then that is what needs to be done . We dont have a lot of time, there are more plastics being made as we read this and there are some plastics melting into our oceans as we speak, while birds and fish eat the little plastic pellets that they see thinking that was a good catch!! When it was just plastic..HELP THEM AND HELP US PLEASE!!! if you need volunteers please contact me !!! I will work in the pacific a whole year to help if i need to !!!

Comment on Rumors of the Meteor by Aurélie & Thomas

We have visited the “Rumeurs de météore” exhibition today. After all the alarming and by the media over-exploited images of our massive environmental footprint it was mind opening to see another more constructive approach to this topic. In a sens, your waste archipelago suggests a beautiful image of creative materialism – thoses bottles still exist after throwing them to the bin. Bringing them back to our eyes, melted but recognizable, stimulates new images. Maybe it’s not guilt but mindfulness that will change our behavior permanently?

I tried to contact these people without any reply. I saw the exhibit but didn’t read the brochure so missed the meeting in Bergen. In the world of the Institute for Non-toxic Propaganda, the horror of the gyros has one poetic application.

The statement that the harvesting of the plastic can never be done economically isn’t a broad enough equation. If the labour could be made without cost ( or covered by another collective expense) it could be possible to extract a completely parallel benefit at the same time as waste recycling. The Non-toxic Propaganda proposal envisages making this off-shore operation an international correction institution for off-shore crime. Society re-cycles its tax-evaders and money launderers into small teams of sailing raft paddlers that feed a mother ship with refuse. (They would also eat and over night aboard the mother ship in the worst of weather.) The ships would be equiped to reduse the plastic mass into a molten compound useful to construct open source hexayurts useful for emergency housing. http://hexayurt.com

Thanks, Alvaro.
