Today I am called upon to announce a very special project that I have been waiting to be made a reality for a long time. Today is the launching of the clean up process from the Kaisei Project. We know have the technology to beginning the process pf removing plastic from the ocean. Armed with an army of robots of various types to collect and process the plastic littered pacific ocean. It took years of work to get people to take this project seriously but after the toxic fish epidemic in 2015 no the general population hardly regarded the issue. The toxicity of the plastic being thrown away 30 to 40 years ago has found in it's way into enough fish to cause a chain reaction in the food chain that has finally impacted the everyday availability of edible fish. In the ocean the food chain is cyclic and the water itself is the medium in which it works. As the plastic breaks down the more serious the problem gets. But no one pays attention to what they don't see, well not until a few hundred thousand of people stated coming up with toxic poisoning from the fish they have been eating all there lives. The ocean was now deemed a high risk source of food. Some seafood is more toxic than others and public announcements were put out in every country to inform people of what to avoid eating the most, if they had to rely on their waterways for food. A summit was held and many major engineering companies, marine biologists, and world wide government agencies started to put a plan into action to try and reverse the damage we have done.
We don't have the technology to remove the molecular sized particles yet but we can work on removing bigger pieces before they break down. These pieces we can filter though various sized nets ran in successions. There are robots of various sorts that do different jobs. It is a system that has been tested and is as proficient as we can make it. The robots include processing stations, trollers, underwater swimmers and probes and connected to satellites and computerized control stations. The probes test the particle per million of the water as they travel with natural currents of the North Pacific Gyre. The trollers and swimmers travel in teams pulling different kinds of net that they take back to processing stations. The processing stations have the job of making the pieces collected into large floating blocks embedded with GPS chips, so that can they be picked up by ships and taken to processing plants on land.
The collaboration is currently working on a project that will use nanotechnology to create specialized robots that seek out and gather molecular pieces and chemicals that we have been dumping for the past hundred plus years. Strict regulations have inhibited the polluting of our natural waterway both ocean and fresh but there is plenty of residual chemicals that needs to be addressed.
This action is a start in a revolution to clean up our act and be responsible stewards of our life support system. And I miss my sushi. I makes me proud to announce this event. I have spent much time and energy teaching people how to make their local soil renewable and I am always aware of the global environment and its affect on our ability to grow food. Here's to a healthy planet!
These are must see sites if you care anything about the future of water
