And awareness really, you know, we came from the ocean.
We are made of water.
Like these are things that are all connected.
I don't think it was deliberate.
I think it may be deliberate now to continue to try and keep the conversation on beach cleanups and
You know, pulling our trash out of the water and all, you know, what used to be referred to as marine debris and in some circles still is.
But that's part of why we've always said call it what it is, plastic pollution.
The majority of what is now found in the ocean is not, you know, coconut husks.
What most people have heard about is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which is where the ocean currents in the Pacific Ocean all meet and swirl and is considered a gyre.
There are gyres in oceans everywhere on the planet.
There is an organization also founding of our movement and coalition called Five Gyres, which has visited and identified the five main gyres, and there are now even more, where the ocean currents swirl, where all of our plastic trash is ending up when it comes off land or off boats or off, you know, cruise ships.
Like, it moves around, but it ends up where the currents take it.
Allowed.
I mean... They just do it?
Well, it happens.
I think the cruise ship issue is a whole separate one.
But what comes off of land from the majority of places is stuff that is either blowing out of trash cans or trucks or, you know, being just thrown into rivers.
So, you know, the majority of what's in the water
It comes from land.
It's not necessarily coming from boats itself.
