Published: Oct. 5, 2020, 11 a.m.

Why are many large projects abandoned? Why has recycling not taken hold in the Bahamas? Why is so much plastic still entering our ocean? Is recycling a viable solution? Katt Andryskova chats to Ryan Hollinrake, the founder of Great Sea Project to answer those questions and more! The GSPs mission is to eliminate the influx of ocean plastic by providing a sustainable solution for communities that don't have a recycling program.They provide ways to use recovered plastics as a commodity, rather than contributing to landfills. Ultimately, this will change the way plastic is consumed, produced and the impact it has on the environment.
