    Pollution of sea shores is one of the causes of fish extinction

    I wonder what could be done to convert all of that trash back into the components that created it in the first place? Maybe start by burning it and capturing the fumes to break it down physically into powder, then physically separate it using civs and centrifugal separators. Then after that... I don't know... but it would definitely be chemistry time.

    Invite Singapore to advise the way to do it.

    What is the point of traveling to the Maldives to pay to see a garbage dump?
    By going there we are contributing to the maintenance of such a state of affairs. Once there it is the tourists who produce so much garbage. Two the authorities know they don't have to do anything about it because the tourist will come anyway and leave money.

    One solution is that every tourist takes his trash back home it used to be like this with edelweiss airlines I hope it’s still running

    💡They would do well to follow China and India with plastic Pyrolysis recycling, which turns plastic into useable fuel.✅
    👍🏿Thereby keeping plastic out of the oceans and lessening fuel costs!‼

    Actually the system of governing isn't perfect I would say bcoz Every 5 years or in a coup the government changes so the problem is there isn't enough time for any leadership to engage a serious issues we have in the country. What we have witnessed and experienced past 15 years.

    • @paulacravello

      the type of government is not relevant. They do not have the means to get rid of the garbage on a sustainable way.

    It's sad how much beauty humans destroy. Man, the Maldive people have really messed up their home. Just for some convenience. (Most countries are just as bad, but it's not as obvious as population density isn't so high).

    Went to Maldives SEP'17 took my own drinks/snacks.
    After going for a walk on #ParadiseIsland and seeing burning off of rubbish at end of island I decided to clean and flatten all my plastic bottles then packed it in my bag to fly home, along with ALL rubbish used during our 4 night stay. You can take snacks/drinks but no alcohol 🚫
    I Tweeted a pic when I returned to Bangkok 🔎#Maldives Recycling Globalnewsth
    Tip: Go low season. High season: 20-25K +THB for a Water Haven Bungalow I paid 9K THB / night
    Take Your Rubbish Home With You.

      I went in September was good weather still super hot. Check 6-8 weeks in advance
      Research all island resorts nearest MALE Airport distances boat/ferry/sea plane
      Paradise Island was only 10 min boat ride still $100 pp rtn
      Paradise Island is good for first timers has everything plus family friendly
      Stingray & sharks feeding shows were cool & scary.
      Maldives Low Season: May to November
      Head on to June and August time when you can expect cooler climates, more rain and cloudier days. November marks the end of the off-season, and it's in this month that you can expect average temperatures of 27°C, and around six hours of sunshine a day
