Watch this to find amazing technological solutions to the plastic problem. This doc is full of hope and optimism. It has many projects that are scaling up, like replacement materials for plastic that dissolve in water, are edible, tasteless, made from seaweed, and accessible to poor parts of the world.

There are a few tragic scenes of animals affected by this problems, but the focus on solutions is inspiring and shows us that ingenuity is the way of the future, and human ingenuity is required to make our modern way of life sustainable for hopefully millions of years into the future on this beautiful Earth.
A must watch. I truly believe that where there is a problem created by 20th century technology, a 21st century technology is the solution, whether is it is in prototype stage right now, or just an idea in someones mind at the moment.
The human brain pays attention to bad news 10 times more than it does good news. Remember this when you fell all is lost. All is not lost. All is only beginning to be found.
