  • Description: Cartoon describing the fundamental futility of trying to clean up floating marine debris. The cartoon accompanies an eLetter in the journal Science posted online on 13/11/2023: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adj0102.Our eLetter and the cartoon are in reply to a Letter by Zouxia Long in Science (same above mink) that we need to accelerate efforts to clean up the ocean. Scientific research shows that most (80%) plastic waste resides on land, and that only a small amount (0.004%) floats at the surface of the ocean. We argue that we need to first limit plastics production and use, and cleanup plastics on land.
