plastic runoff
Continent-size toxic stew of plastic trash fouling swath of Pacific Ocean
Binh sent me this article link. When he sails around the world he wants to stop by and document it (hopefully he doesnt get stuck in it and end up like the 267 species mentioned in the article). The ban on plastic bags in SF supermarkets is awesome, but I recall it applying only to the chain markets? Banning styrofoam for food containers in Oakland was also awesome, but what's everybody using instead? Plastic! I am paranoid about plastic leaching and slowly poisoning me, like it is doing to the animals that starve due to the plastic accumulated in their stomachs. I just found my big canvas bag that i always forget to take to the market. Back to chemistry now. Maybe I can, in a moment of inspiration (or delirium), develop the chemical formula for a biodegradable plastic substitute that is actually affordable. Oh I had a lucid dream the other day that i could fly, and it was sort of related to meditation but not really, more about determination and focus - i'm thinking of a formula for that too.
