Thanks. That’s how I suspected they’d work. I wonder what the cost effectiveness is? I’m not certain the ‘problem’ justifies the solution.

“I’m not certain the ‘problem’ justifies the solution.”

I’m not a “greenie”, but from what I have read & seen, floating trash is a big problem on rivers & lakes and a huge problem where ocean currents cause it to congregate.

Floating plastic trash can be either recycled or since much of it is petroleum based plastic, makes a high energy fuel.

BTW, the “developing world” is a major contributor also.
