Description - Unconventional Science: Cleaning Up Plastic with Artificial Coastlines by Douglas Hustad
Around the world, scientists are finding cool and unusual ways to make people's lives better and help the environment. Some of these methods have been quietly used for centuries. Only recently have they earned much attention. Other methods use new technology in unexpected and even gross ways to clean things up and provide people with water and energy! Learn about the history of these fascinating methods, how they work and how they are making the world a better place. People throw away plastic every day. Lots of it ends up in the ocean. It can harm marine wildlife there. Scientists are developing technology that helps collect plastic from the ocean. Cleaning Up Plastic with Artificial Coastlines looks at the science behind the technology, its risks and how it could help improve life on Earth. Easy-to-read text, vivid images and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources and an index.
