It’s a great idea but fiscally it wouldn’t pay off but that’s not the point I’m sure.
It looks like a good way to clean up the oceans swirling garbage pits. I’m all for it.

Well, gee, if it doesn't pay off fiscally, don't do it, right, Fretwell?

That is a 'good news story'...if it works.
I sure hope so!

This could be another viable option if on a larger scale.

Those guys were here at the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron demonstrating this process. Not sure if anyone bought test models.

Don, I think it would follow under the “slow but sure” column. I guess it would work under the same principle as a swimming pool pump and filter. Sort of...

It is good to get this stuff out of the water but there is not much
recycle value. They don't want it here at all. (only "clean plastic")
The best use is burning it in the waste to energy plant.
I pull lots of junk out of the water and the guy from the recycle
company says throw it in the trash.

Needs an addition. We have to aerate harbors here when the bait fish,
sardines and anchovies mostly, get too thick and suffocate. Add an aerator
to the unit and have best of all worlds.

I am sure I pull more trash out of the water every year than anyone
else here. Probably more than everyone put together.
