With images of garbage clogging up the Pacific and straw bans popping up from city to city, it’s fair to say that marine plastic pollution has caught the public’s eye. But how do we solve the plastic problem– do we stop it at the source, place blame on consumers, target big corporations, or figure out the best technology to remove it once it enters the water? In this episode, Ali Boden and Cass Nieman explore the plastic burden as it is passed along the supply chain. Part of our Conservation and Development Series.
