How incongruous that we drag rubbush , car bodies and other junk from creeks and rivers, scour the seashore for rubbish and plastic waste YET in an age where we are urged to Recycle and protect the Environment, Governments can dump into our oceans ships coated in lead paint and with a steel recycle value of more than a Million dollars. Where are you Mr. Kiernan?
