bit disappointing, what i wanted to know is what is the plastic of and where is it coming from

As far as I know our rivers look nothing like this:

In the past month, we have collected over 1.5m kg of trash with Interceptor 006 in Guatemala. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/JCusugJgyXE

and given how far out the island is:

The great ocean garbage patch is 75% offshore fishing material, I’m doubtful an island that far out contains that much plastic from Australia

Stop eating fish (and tbf all meat that destroys out waterways), and convince others to do the same.

The people who don't are literally the problem.
