#29: Plastic Free July – The Garbage Patch isn’t what you think
In light of Plastic Free July, this episode of Tap’d In challenges what we think we know about plastic pollution. Hosts Jordan and Lana dive into the real story behind the Great Pacific Garbage Patch—revealing it’s not a swirling island of consumer waste, but largely fishing industry debris. Drawing from a compelling video investigation, they explore how mismanaged waste, not just littering, fuels ocean pollution, and how underestimated sources like tires and paint contribute to the growing microplastic problem. With plastic production still on the rise and recycling falling short, Jordan and Lana make the case for systemic change—starting this July and beyond.
