Banning plastic bags and straws in Canada has no affect on plastic trash in the oceans.


QuoteInternational researchers estimate that as much as 73 percent of the garbage in the Atlantic Ocean originates from Chinese merchant vessels, Canada's National Post reported on Tuesday.



Researchers from Canada and South Africa studied waste washed up on the beaches of Inaccessible Island, an island in the heart of the southern Atlantic Ocean, on a series of trips that began in 1984.



Nearly three-quarters of the trash they sifted through originated in Asia, produced by China. The research challenges long assumptions that plastic debris at sea primarily originates on land.



"When we were [on the island] last year, it was really shocking how much drink bottles had just come to dominate," lead author Peter Ryan told the BBC.



"What was really shocking was how the origin had shifted from largely South American, which is what you would expect from somewhere like Inaccessible Island, because it's downwind from South America, to predominantly Asian."



In addition, 90 percent of the debris recovered was time-stamped within the last year, and it would take an average of three to five years for that same garbage to make it from land to sea.

To save the oceans from plastic pollution Chinese merchant need to stop throwing their refuse overboard.

The sea bed is dead and the surface is covered in some dangerous green moss.





There are WW1 and WW2 wrecks at the bottom...Leaking oil... Plus Nazi-Germanys chemical weapon arsenal which soviets dumped there after WW2.

Yes, of course.

How about they just put a recycling dumpster or two on those ships.

Isn't that interesting. To reduce plastic pollution in the oceans, Chinese merchant marine sailors have to be trained not to be litter bugs.

I like your idea brother, but it's hopeless when it comes to Chinese, they're the type of people that would never be civilized unless they feel threatened.  My workshop is located at an industrial plaza and 90% of the tenants are Chinese, the management office has mentioned all tenants are supposed to park at the back of the plaza, but they all still park at the front, leaving no vacancy for customers to park.  Then comes the garbage issue, tenants are supposed to put their garbage in the dumpster, but people just put it on the ground next to it or around it causing all the rubbish to be blown everywhere.

Than you have to shame them. If you see them doing it, say something. Embarrass the hell out of them. Nobody likes getting caught being a lazy slob. They will change their ways.

I'm having the same thoughts too, think it's time I should buy a new surveillance camera and use it to monitor the parking lot and the dumpster area and forward it to property management.

Do it. And when you have video of tennants being lazy assholes, take it to them and say, I got something I want to show you. Remain calm when you do it. They will park their cars where they are supposed to and put their garbage in the dumpster. Trust me brother, it will work.
