SHOCKING amounts of PLASTIC WASTE in the Norwegian archipelago - Sail Mermaid - S4 E05

This video is about ocean plastic pollution cleanup, cleaning beaches from plastic in the Norwegian archipelago, marine litter and volunteer crew cleaning beaches from marine debris. I have never been an environmentalist and I am not a big fan of the man made climate hysteria. I think the media and our politicians are hyping up a demon that isn't really there. I am not sure why, but there is no question there is money in it somewhere. Climate change is not a new thing. Climate has always been changing and will continue to do so no matter how much taxes we pay and what cars we drive. Scientists agrees that the climate is changing, but it is the politicians and the media who claims this is a man made climate change, not the mass of scientists. In the meantime the elite doesn't focus much on the evil plastic problem we all can see. The over consumption of plastic and how we deal with the waste. No one ever said plastic is good for our nature as far as I know. We can all agree on this, so why can we not focus on this and make a change, together? I was first made aware of the plastic pollution problem when I sailed to Morocco and could see with my own eyes how the beaches there was swamped with plastic litter. Not just the beaches actually, also the fields were full of plastic waste. I also heard we had a huge problem in our Norwegian archipelago so I decided to join the crew from "in the same boat" to see with my own eyes if this is such a huge problem as they say. Then film it and give them a hand. Here is the result of my video, and I hope you will enjoy it and maybe it will be an eye opener to you as well as it was for me?
