I fear that it is unlikely that we will ever solved the plastics at sea problem. If you think alone of the quantities of plastic floating in our oceans, 5.25 trillion pieces, and it is probably a fraction of the whole problem.
Mircoplastics in particular, will be very hard to eliminate from the water, and they are not just in the water, they are in soil and drinking water too. It is a sad fact, but we are gradually destroying this planet we call home.
We have to change the way we live. It is time the big companies put drinks in glass again for starters and we pay a deposit, which is returned when we recycle and it has to be big enough to make it worthwhile.
