Show Notes
Jeremy and Brad catch-up to discuss the latest happenings in protecting our oceans and waterways from plastic pollution, including a review of Boyan Slat's "Ocean Cleanup" project and "Interceptor" technology (released just this week) - and whether Boyan really is "turning off the tap" of ocean plastic pollution. We also have a quick chat about the recent media attention around PFAS contamination (and associated class action) in Australia, and get the latest vegan news ;)
