The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (right click to select open in a new tab)

Having witnessed huge plastic garbage bags thrown overboard from a cruise liner in the middle of the night, I am passionate about doing everything possible to minimise their use.
Sure, ours may end up at the dump, but using recyclables is a small thing we can do to show our concern.

Get over it - no-one's complaining in South Australia.

Still a very long way to go to eliminate plastics from waste. What damage are we going to hear about next?
