The answer to our world's plastic pollution problem is here.

Startling images have emerged of the devastating coral bleaching unfolding across parts of the Great Barrier Reef, as the marine park authority overseeing the prized environmental icon raised its response to the highest level possible.
It is very hot down under, and the combination of climate change and El Nino is devastating for the corals along the Great Barrier Reef. This is so heartbreaking. This has prompted the government to implement its highest response level (level three) to help tackle the crisis.

A level three response means stepped-up surveys to better understand and tackle threats to the reef.
The Great Barrier Reef is comprised of about 3,000 reefs and 900 islands, stretching 2,000km along Australia’s northeast coast. It is considered the world’s largest living structure. The Australian economy is highly dependent on the reef, as more than $3bn is generated each year from the reef’s tourism industry.

If you want to learn more about coral bleaching, you can check out this article I wrote on the topic a few months ago, where I was discussing coral bleaching in the Caribbean waters following a really hot episode in the summer of 2014.

Most Americans could be sustained on local foods alone—except in NY and LA
The researchers found that based on population data from the year 2000, up to 82% of people in the US could eat a standard American diet with food from within 50 miles of home. That proportion goes up to 85% for a vegetarian diet, and down to 80% for a meat-intensive diet. If the foodshed radius expands to 100 miles, the potential for a standard American diet goes up to 90%, 93% for a vegetarian diet, and 88% for a meat-intensive diet.
Not everyone can eat so locally, though, even in the utopian model created with the study’s computer programs and algorithms. While most cities, including Chicago and San Francisco, can feed 100% of their populations with food from within 50 miles, large cities that have relatively little nearby cropland cannot. “New York City and Los Angeles, for example, can support only about 10% of their populations with a 50-mile foodshed radius but as much as 30-50% with a 100-mile foodshed radius.”
