Well there seems to be some good news on the horizon, I posted on my FB page, they seem to be making plastic pellets out of the waste to pave roads, See below A Scottish company has come up with a way to use recycled plastic to make roads instead of oil based asphalt products like bitumen. Great Haiku dearest Demetrios. We all do our bit to spread awareness....Maria xxx

That is good news my dearest friend, Maria BUT please tell me what will happen to all the trash has settled on the seabed or has passed to the food chain? Furthermore, how many years it will take for to clean this huge surface that grows each day? Thank you for caring! Xxx

Yes, if there is enough attention. my dear friend, Vijay but how many do you think will bother even to read this Haiku , let alone care for what is going on? Thank you my friend for caring!

So true dear, Tom! It drives me crazy to see people saying a lot of things and do nothing to save this planet, to save themselves! Thank you so very much for caring!
