Cleaning the oceans one step at a time
Two Australians created this container that collects plastic, paper,
oil, fuel and detergent floating in the ocean. They want to implement it
the middle of next year to clean up the sea worldwide. It seems a great
idea. The only “but” as always is money, so they are raising funds to
get to their goal. You can see their project and donations here.

Studies have shown that people convince themselves that they’re acting rationally when making major decisions— where to go to college, what to major in, who to kiss or not kiss—when they’re really acting on unconscious impulses. The human brain simply can’t handle all the complexities that life offers, so emotions kick in and end up making the call. And when that call blows, people don’t understand why.
