        How about a plastictax? If producing plastic would be more expensive maybe the biggest polluters would find another packaging materials

        And with the profit from the plastic tax we could fund the cleanup for the garbage patch

        It’s still not as big a garbage patch as they have in Wisconsin, they’ve just decided to call it a football team instead.
