Great Pacific garbage patch: giant plastic trap put to sea again
A floating device designed to catch plastic waste has been redeployed in a second attempt to clean up a huge island of garbage swirling in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii.
Boyan Slat, creator of the Ocean Cleanup project, announced on Twitter that a 600-metre (2,000-foot) long floating boom that broke apart late last year was sent back to the Great Pacific garbage patch this week after four months of repair.
A ship towed the U-shaped barrier from San Francisco to the patch in September to trap the plastic. But during the four months at sea, the boom broke apart under constant waves and wind and the boom wasn’t retaining the plastic it caught.
“Hopefully nature doesn’t have too many surprises in store for us this time,” Slat tweeted. “Either way, we’re set to learn a lot from this campaign.”
Fitted with solar-powered lights, cameras, sensors and satellite antennas, the device intends to communicate its position at all times, allowing a support vessel to fish out the collected plastic every few months and transport it to dry land.

Re: Global Climate Change Science News
Yep. Cheap clothes are helping the garbage pile.
The story of a £4 Boohoo dress: cheap clothes at a high cost
The story of a £4 Boohoo dress: cheap clothes at a high cost
These clothes dont even get washed just thrown away.It comes in red, mustard and black, in sizes 6 up to 16; the bandeau bodycon minidress, is, according to the online retailer Boohoo, “perfect for transitioning from day to play”.
It is not so much the styling and colour, but the price of the £5 dress – reduced this week to just £4 – which attracts thousands of the thriving retailer’s 5 million UK customers to add it to their online shopping bag, click and pay.
Products and prices like these have driven Boohoo’s profits to a record £59.9m, bucking the trend of struggling high street fashion stores across the country.
Made in the UK, at factories in Leicester and Manchester, the £5 dress epitomises a fast fashion industry that pumps hundreds of new collections on to the market in short time at pocket money prices, with social media celebrity endorsement to boost high consumer demand. On average, such dresses and other products are discarded by consumers after five weeks.

I haven't bought a new item of clothing for over 5 years. Charity shops are overflowing with hardly worn items.
I still have some pants from before the old king died.

Never bought a thing since I retired. So many clothes. I always sourced my clothes and never mind paying top prices. All my clothes are made in Europe.

I source mine from tiny little organic oriental children whose parents have sold into virtual slavery. Each child has a certificate and is guaranteed to be worked 16 hours a day. I have the paperwork, so you know they are genuine.

We always discard any clothing we don't need to a variety of charities, where it is sorted into stuff that can be re-purposed, and others for rags or recycling. None of ours goes to landfill.

‘Precipitous’ fall in Antarctic sea ice revealed
:[The vast expanse of sea ice around Antarctica has suffered a fall since 2014, satellite data shows, and fell at a faster rate than seen in the Arctic.
The plunge in the average annual extent means Antarctica lost as much sea ice in four years as the Arctic lost in 34 years. The cause of the sharp Antarctic losses is as yet unknown and only time will tell whether the ice recovers or continues to decline.
But researchers said it showed ice could disappear much more rapidly than previously thought. Unlike the melting of ice sheets on land, sea ice melting does not raise sea level. But losing bright white sea ice means the sun’s heat is instead absorbed by dark ocean waters, leading to a vicious circle of heating...

Bogus anthropogenic warming increasingly seen as a hoax
Now that the hot air predictions are increasingly shown for what they are: 'hot air' , more scientists are working up the spinal fortitude to take on the propagandist money-grabbing self-serving retards for being part of this false flag operation.
Here's one of the latest papers:

And its PDF for those not yet mentally emasculated:

Download it & read. Try not to switch into 'functionally illiterate' mode!

Look up what "emasculated" means & juxtapose it with "mentally". But then you might simply be a "useful idiot" like Greta?

Non-peer-reviewed manuscript falsely claims natural cloud changes can explain global warming
Details here.Non-peer-reviewed manuscript falsely claims natural cloud changes can explain global warming
Flawed Reasoning: The authors' argument claims a correlation between cloud cover/relative humidity and global temperature proves that the former caused the latter without investigating whether they have the relationship backwards.
Inadequate support: The source of their claimed global cloud dataset is not given, and no research on their proposed mechanism for climate change is cited.
Fails to provide correct physical explanation: The manuscript incorrectly claims that the rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide is caused by release from ocean waters. It also provides no explanation for the claim that an increase in relative humidity causes global cooling.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops. - Stephen J. Gould
