It's exactly 10 years ago that I first learned about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Back then, everyone told me there was no hope of ever cleaning it up. They were right then; no method existed to do it. Proud (and relieved!) to say that now there is.

BREAKING: the final test of System 002 is completed, and we have another big catch on deck. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch can now be cleaned. The crew is already sorting the catch, and lots of information is still to be processed. Stay tuned!

The story below is about an important water issue. This quote, however, goes well beyond water: “Everyone must contribute...” “That's easier said than done because of course everyone thinks their own _____ use is justified and that no one else's is." thehill.com/policy/energy-…
