Fin mai 2023, un sommet international visant à trouver un accord pour lutter contre la pollution plastique se tient à Paris, au siège de l'Unesco. À quelques centaines de mètres, au Grand Palais éphémère, des entreprises du monde entier présentent 1000 solutions écoresponsables. ______ Lorsque Nelly Pons a commencé son enquête Océan Plastique, en 2016, le monde, était fasciné par le projet Ocean Cleanup du jeune Néerlandais Boyan Slat. La technique qu'il proposait portait alors un grand espoir : celui de parvenir à piéger et enlever tous les déchets concentrés dans les gyres.  En réalité, seul 1 % des plastiques se trouve à la surface des océans. Le reste, 99 %, est déjà fragmenté et dispersé dans la colonne d'eau ou déposé au fond. Boyan Slat aura au moins réussi à attirer l'attention sur cette pollution dont on sait maintenant qu'elle ne peut être endiguée qu'en amont.  Il faut donc filtrer les fleuves et les rivières ? Pas la panacée non plus. Lors d'une inondation, avant de commencer à éponger, il faut fermer le robinet. Pour le plastique, c'est pareil : la priorité, c'est de réduire drastiquement notre production et notre consommation. Toutes les autres approches ont un défaut : elles laissent penser qu'on peut continuer à utiliser ces matériaux comme par le passé. Ce ne sera pas possible, n'en déplaise à nos habitudes confortables. NB: Connaissez-vous le compte Instagram de BSG ?

The journey from theory to reality has proved difficult, but he is now extracting plastic from the Pacific and a number of rivers around the world. We speak to Boyan about the scale of the task at hand. Is it even an achievable goal? How is he raising enough money?

Life on Earth is complex right now! Whether you are alert to refugee crises, signs of environmental damage and climate change, severe storms, health effects from air and water pollution, or social and political turmoil, you could make a list of a lot of things that worry you or even lead you to feel despair.But are the anxiety and eco-anxiety that have become normal our best response to the crises we face? Neuroscience and the history of activism suggest an alternative approach that's more beneficial for us as individuals, and far more effective for healing our world. We're learning that:·       Anxiety creates a freeze response in our brains that shuts down the optimism and innovation needed to solve crises. ·       People who bemoan social problems or environmental problems often make few or no contributions to solutions.·       Neuroscientist Rick Hanson describes the human brain's state of anxiety, stress, and pessimism as the activity of our reactive (and more primitive) ‘red brain.' Conversely, our ‘green brain' state is our responsive (and more evolved) mode of confidently meeting challenges and enjoying life's pleasures without getting stuck in the stress response. ·       We can see the effects of red brain and green brain play out in human history and the work of current activists such as Wangari Maathai and Boyan Slat.·       It may be fashionable to moan and complain in ‘red brain' and talk about our dystopian future, but I challenge you to realize that actually we are designed to respond creatively to our world, not sit frozen in despair.·       If you want to suffer less and help a lot more, learn to curate your ‘green brain.' Listen in to learn how.·       Living as much as possible in green brain allows you to be someone who assists with regeneration for people and planet, rather than someone who holds us back.

Do you know what a "milestone" is? In Chinese, it's 【里程碑】. There are many kinds of milestones. When you become 18 years old, that's a milestone. When you get your first job, that's a milestone. And, if you get married or have a baby, those are milestones, too. 18歲成年、第一份工作、或是結婚生小孩,每一個都是一種里程碑。 Today, I want to talk about a different kind of milestone. This one is about plastic. The milestone is about cleaning up a lot of plastic in the ocean. 現在,有一個清理海洋塑膠垃圾的里程碑! First, I need to tell you about something called the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a really big pile of plastic floating in the ocean. Most of that plastic is in very small pieces. It can hurt fish and other animals in the ocean. 太平洋垃圾島是一堆在海上飄的垃圾推起來的,這些垃圾會害魚跟其他的動物受傷。 Some people are trying very hard to clean up the plastic from the ocean. One of these people is a man named Boyan Slat. He made a special type of machine to clean up plastic from the ocean. 一個叫做 Boyan Slat 做了一台清理塑膠的機器。 This year, his machine hit a milestone. It cleaned up 220,000 pounds of plastic from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. That's almost the same weight as a blue whale, the biggest animal on earth! 今年這台機器達到了一個里程碑,清了好多垃圾,重量幾乎跟一頭藍鯨一樣重! Wow! Congratulations! ________________________________ Vocabulary 環保人士清除了大量海洋垃圾,達成新的里程碑。 1. get married 結婚 Tom says he's getting married when he's 21. 湯姆說他要21歲時結婚。 But he's only 10 now! 但是他現在才十歲! 2. try 努力 Well, he says he'll try hard to save money. 他說他要努力存錢。 How much has he saved? 他存了多少了?

Na jarenlang ontwerpen, rekenen, bouwen en aanpassen gingen de plastic soep-bezems van The Ocean Cleanup dit jaar eindelijk echt aan de slag. Daarmee is de droom van Boyan Slat in een nieuwe fase van opschalen terecht gekomen. De afgelopen zomer viste zijn Ocean Cleanup op één dag maar liefst 100.000 kilo plastic uit het water tussen Hawaii en Californië. Toch is er nog heel veel werk te verrichten. In deze zogeheten Great Pacific Garbage Patch ligt namelijk 80 miljoen kilo plastic in het water.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Depuis plusieurs années déjà, l'organisation à but non lucratif The Ocean Cleanup s'affaire à nettoyer mers et océans de ses détritus. D'ailleurs, depuis août dernier, sa cible n'est autre que le vortex du Pacifique Nord entre Hawaï et la Californie, d'une superficie trois fois plus grande que la France. Un challenge immense mais qui semble-t-il est déjà un succès !Avant de rentrer dans le détail de l'opération, c'est quoi The Ocean Cleanup ? Et bien il s'agit tout simplement d'un projet à but non lucratif lancé en 2013 par un jeune étudiant de 18 ans (à l'époque) en ingénierie aéronautique, le néerlandais Boyan Slat. Le principe est simple : déployer des filets de 600 mètres de long en forme de U sur trois mètres de profondeur afin de recueillir un maximum de déchets marins produits par l'homme. Une fois les conteneurs pleins, les ordures sont traitées puis recyclés.Jusqu'à présent, le système était passif. Cela signifie que les filets en forme de U se laissaient dériver au gré des courants. Après réflexion, l'équipe a finalement opté pour un système de propulsion bien plus efficace. Concrètement, deux navires avec équipage se placent à chaque bout de la barrière dans le but de la remorquer dans l'eau à une vitesse constante d'environ 3 kilomètres heures. Plus de souplesse et une plus grande efficacité puisque le système peut ainsi être redirigé vers des zones à forte concentration de déchets.Depuis le mois d'août, ce système a été testé plus de 70 fois, dont le plus récent consistait à remplir entièrement le filet en moins de six semaines dans le vortex du Pacifique Nord. Et d'après l'équipe, ce dernier test fut un véritable succès. C'est sur twitter que le fondateur Boyan Slat a partagé la bonne nouvelle écrivant, je cite « Tout a fonctionné !!! Charge massive. Nous essaierons de partager les images dès que possible ». Et en effet, les quelques photos et morceaux de vidéos présent sur internet sont assez impressionnants. Si les équipes de The Ocean Cleanup sont actuellement en train de traiter ses déchets, on ignore pour l'instant la quantité totale récoltés… même si elle devrait sans doute dépasser plusieurs tonnes. En parallèle, l'organisation s'efforce aussi de nettoyer les rivières grâce à un système de rampe et de bac, empêchant ainsi ces déchets d'atteindre l'océan. D'ici 2040, The Ocean Cleanup espère réduire de 90 % les plastiques et autre déchets flottants dans les océans. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Lorsque Nelly Pons a commencé son enquête Océan Plastique, en 2016, le monde, était fasciné par le projet Ocean Cleanup du jeune Néerlandais Boyan Slat. La technique qu'il proposait portait alors un grand espoir : celui de parvenir à piéger et enlever tous les déchets concentrés dans les gyres. En réalité, seul 1 % des plastiques se trouve à la surface des océans. Le reste, 99 %, est déjà fragmenté et dispersé dans la colonne d'eau ou déposé au fond. Boyan Slat aura au moins réussi à attirer l'attention sur cette pollution dont on sait maintenant qu'elle ne peut être endiguée qu'en amont. Il faut donc filtrer les fleuves et les rivières ? Pas la panacée non plus. Lors d'une inondation, avant de commencer à éponger, il faut fermer le robinet. Pour le plastique, c'est pareil : la priorité, c'est de réduire drastiquement notre production et notre consommation. Toutes les autres approches ont un défaut : elles laissent penser qu'on peut continuer à utiliser ces matériaux comme par le passé. Ce ne sera pas possible, n'en déplaise à nos habitudes confortables.

Ogni anno finiscono in acqua 8 milioni di tonnellate di plastica. Le cause sono tante, dall'abbandono dei rifiuti al crescente utilizzo di oggetti monouso. La plastica, poi, è un materiale praticamente eterno, che col tempo si sminuzza in piccolissimi frammenti che mettono a rischio interi ecosistemi, come ci racconta anche il velista Giovanni Soldini: per questo, è indispensabile occuparsi delle conseguenze. A soli 16 anni, un ragazzo decide di dedicarsi a una missione: raccogliere, per eliminarla o riutilizzarla, la plastica presente negli oceani, grazie a un'idea innovativa, semplice, ma soprattutto concreta. Oggi il primo paio di occhiali realizzati interamente con la plastica raccolta negli oceani è già una realtà. Il suo nome è Boyan Slat, e questa è la sua storia.Credits estratti audio dagli eventi di The Ocean Cleanup: The Ocean Cleanup

He devoted his high school science project to understanding the problem and research why cleanup was considered impossible. It became clear that a cleanup using vessels and nets would take thousands of years, cost tens of billions of dollars and harmful to sea life. There are five major plastic accumulation zones in the world where ocean currents converge. We learned about them when we featured Marcus Erickson and his company five gyres in episode 12, these accumulation zones are commonly called garbage patches. The majority of ocean plastic will not go away by itself, but instead it slowly breaks down into microplastic. Boyan came up with an idea to develop a passive concentration system. Rick: (https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=hOBHXHnDS9WVA7eqZfy6WEtmVnowbHym-cAzll_lx7KQdMgS0fMG99p7SHOFLgAkhXDUWPP5ANX8gK7k50lHftvifoY&loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&ts=108.2 (01:48)) Instead of going after the plastic, he lets the plastic come to him, led by slot.
