Is Seabin the solution?

in #nature7 years ago

Sales of Seabin start this summer! They are floating debris interception devices designed for marinas and other small water bodys.

Each Seabin is estimated to catch around half a ton of debris each year!

But is this energy consuming litter catcher the solution to the marine little problem?

Of course not!

This well marketed product is a great way to stimulate innovation and inspire people but at the day, a revolution in the way that we use and manage our waste, in partially plastics.

We collectively need to end our plastic dependency and find a way to recover from the damage which the 8.3 billion tons of plastic that has been produced to date has caused.

Zero waste is the future!
