20,000 Pounds of Trash Removed From Pacific Garbage Patch: ‘Holy mother of god. It worked!’

The man who won't rest until the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is cleaned up has successfully tested his system for doing so.

““The Great Pacific Garbage Patch can now be cleaned,” announced Dutch entrepreneur Boyan Slat, the wonderkid inventor who’s spent a decade inventing systems for waterborne litter collection.

Recent tests on his Ocean Cleanup rig called System 002, invented to tackle the 1.8 trillion pieces of plastic pollution, were a success, leading Slat to predict that most of the oceanic garbage patches could be removed by 2040.

Intersections of ocean currents have created the massive floating islands of plastic trash—five slow-moving whirlpools that pull litter from thousands of miles away into a single radius.

The largest one sits between California and Hawaii, and 27-year-old Slat has been designing and testing his systems out there, launching from San Francisco since 2013.

GNN has reported on his original design for the floating device, but his engineering team improved upon it. System 002, nicknamed “Jenny,” successfully netted 9,000 kilograms, or around 20,000 pounds in its first trial.

It’s carbon-neutral, able to capture microplastics as small as 1 millimeter in diameter, and was designed to pose absolutely no threat to wildlife thanks to its wide capture area, slow motion, alerts, and camera monitors that allow operators to spy any overly-curious marine life…

Slat estimates ten Jennies could clean half the garbage patch in five years, and if 10 Jennies were deployed to the five major ocean gyres, then 90% of all floating plastic could be removed by 2040.” -via Good News Network, 10/19/21

Recent update from this org: they’ve launched System 03 (in 2023) and have gone on over 100 expeditions and collected over 1 million pounds of trash! They also are working on cleaning up rivers :)

Sally and Amy’s names are PERFECT! For them, and their relationship with Sonic!

Unlike most characters in the Sonic franchise, Amy and Sally have human names, as well as surnames instead of being referred to by their species. HOWEVER, there is a brilliance in this. They represent who they are and what roles they have. And it can be found in the meaning of these names.

Sally can mean “lady, princess, or noblewoman.” Sally in every incarnation she is in, except the Fleetway comics, is a princess. She has to deal with being both a leader and her royal duties. Acorns come from oak trees, which are known for their strong endurance. Sally has stood her ground against many foes and is just as determined to in her goals.

Amy is an English variation of the Old French spelling Aimee which means “beloved.” We all know Amy’s about love, be it for Sonic or spreading it to others. Her name could also be derived from the Japanese word "emi" (笑み?), meaning "smile", relating to her cute personality and cheerfulness. We all know roses are not only concerned one of the most romantic flowers, but they also have thorns. Amy may be sweet, but she can have a nasty temper if you rub her the wrong way.

And as I said in the beginning, their names also reflect their relationship with Sonic. Specifically their surnames. Sonic has always been described as free as the wind. Both Sally and Amy’s last names are from plants, once that act very differently in windy conditions.

Oak trees can withstand high wind speed (unless they’re extremely strong). This reflects how Sally can match Sonic’s own stubbornness with her own.

In a couple episodes of Sonic X, Amy has talked about her being flower petals on the wind. This refers to her wanting to follow Sonic on his adventures and be with him.

So yeah. Sally and Amy have ingenious names for them!

An old hedgehog just looking for his kid son

[nightfurylover31]

I decided to do my own take on a Sally redesign.

I took elements from the Sally lookalike cameo in the Chaotix’s 30th anniversary issue, making it more like her hair is a stripe down her back and has hair that matches most of her fur. I was going to keep the fur tuffs on her cheeks, but that just made it look too cluttered around that part of her face. Her boots are the same as her early Archie and SatAM pilot. I like how more distinct they are. Her other ones remind me too much of Amy’s.

Was feeling nostalgic. When I was a kid I wanted to be Sally. She was so cool! I tried to take apart one of my handheld games to turn it into 'Nicole' despite knowing next to nothing about computers. Now we all have one as our phone I guess, but its still not as cool. XD

I’ve heard Satoru has a sweet-tooth… and you know what they say - you are what you eat after all 🍭

I know I’m late to the party but I fear JJK has possessed me lately… I’m rewatching the anime as I’m drawing fanart after fanart 😅

I guess that’s what you get if you came back to watching anime after few years bc wtf why it’s so peak?? I have to get my hands on the manga… anyway if anyone has some other recommendations I’ll be grateful bc I think I seriously need to catch up xd
