I hope that my comments are appreciated as support for empowering people in their efforts to make a difference 'in how we live together' on this planet.

I watched this video attentively and felt the huge commitment involved in any effort to invite people to rethink. Respect : )

thanks to the individuals who are rethinking and thanks for sharing this video information

@gaiagale Always a pleasure to read your comments and thoughts gaiagale. Of course you are right about the term rubbish - perhaps potentially recyclable goods floating in the river would be a more correct terminology. Thanks for your kind words and enthusiasm.

@gaiagale ...'rubbish' is a word that is a convenient and commonly understood name for Post Consumer Commodities that are currently being given or "thrown away" by us as consumers however they are also being marketed globally. For example any piece of 'rubbish' is either Paper, Organic Matter, Metal, Plastic and/or Glass ...if one makes time to pick up 'rubbish' it is quite a different concept to making time to pick up Post consumer Organic Matter, Paper, Plastic, Metal, and/or Glass : )

I clicked on the like 'thumbs up' however it failed to register ...anyway I can offer a supportive comment here ...thank-you for sharing information regarding 'how to start' involving our communities in empowering individuals within to understand that what we do on a day to day basis affects the whole community and the watershed

just a small note regarding using words like 'rubbish' I'm running out of character space : )
