Cut up and cleared a massive ghost net off the beach today at Ka'a'awa.

​Sorting and cleaning ocean plastics and other marine debris this morning to assist a local Boy Scout Troop with a conservation related trash art project.

Amazing to think some of this plastic has been circulating in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch for 7 years before reaching Hawaii...
