It's estimated that by 2050, our oceans will contain more plastic than fish! 
It's challenging to comprehend this devastation and absolutely heartbreaking. 
All life on Earth, depends on the oceans. They regulate our climate, provide 80% of our oxygen (well plankton do) and are the largest source of food for humans and wildlife. 
Luckily, a young inventor named Boyan Slat, has dedicated his ingenuity to solving the 'impossible' challenge of ridding our oceans of plastic.  
The video below is an excellent presentation of the issue at hand, the challenges they've overcome and the plan to action.  Boyan states that they can remove 50% of the plastics in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, in 5 years.   

This is monumental and something everyone should support!
