Remanufacturing is Environmentally Beneficial

Submitted by Piotr on Fri, 07/01/2011 - 23:07

Pacific garbage patch known as the Pacific Gyre. Twice the size of Texas, the Gyre’s actual density is hard to measure, but some estimates put it at around 335,000 pieces of plastic per square kilometer, roughly 7 times as many particles as zooplankton.
