It would be my thought
in order to keep up with the growing problem, that A.) Devise a biodegradble chemical to integrate into plastic, B.) a filtering system somehow for the area that is affected....we obviously will have plastics until something better comes along, and I do not have the expertise to know how that would translate.
It is unreasonable to think we could even entertain the idea of eliminating something that is so deeply ingrained within the infrastructure and lives of the global community....
Guess who will be the ones to come up with a solution?
