Fri, 31 Jul 2009 05:11:35 +0000 http://earthfirst.com/?p=1188#comment-7921 I heard about this terrible situation on a local radio station. It needs to be addressed asap!! Could one use ships like those that harvest sea kelp, etc. be used to 'harvest' this mass of garbage and this 'crop' be used to form a building material or the plastic be reused in some manner??? A new industry? I know cost is a concern, but . . . I took an oceanography class when I attended UC-Davis and do understand some of the implications of this 'terror from the sea'. I can't help financially, but please keep me informed. I have been out to sea and can't imagine such a sight.... Thanks for your time. I heard about this terrible situation on a local radio station.
