Pardon the mass email. Well, it’s been a long journey out into the Great Northwest Garbage Patch in the Pacific Ocean but our environmental oceanic Odyssey is complete. Now the hard part starts.

With Earth Day still recent but fading fast I just wanted to email you all and let you know that all 12 parts of Toxic: Garbage Island, plus a special bonus episode are up now on VBS. Education and awareness are the first steps we need to make if we are going to right this situation, people should not be able to claim ignorance anymore.

It’s our mess and now we have to clean it up. The series has been a huge success thanks to all of you who talked about it or posted. Heck, we even got on CNN and ABC News.

You can watch all 12 episodes by going here: Toxic: Garbage Island on VBS.tv - http://www.vbs.tv/shows/toxic/garbage-island/

We also did a special bonus episode. An interview with Frederick Vom Saal, Ph.D on Bishpenol A which has been all over the news as of late with plastic drinking containers. Super disturbing.

This was incredibly interesting to watch, I am left with a completely different view of this issue; the opposite view, I now support Obama’s connection with this man. If you are interested in getting to the bottom of this hot issue, I implore you to watch this:

New York State is calling on large internet retailers such as Amazon.com to collect sales tax even though Amazon does not have a physical presence in the state. This seems really unfair, hopefully it doesn’t go through. Here’s more
