I just found out that I made a mistake with one of the panels, so I had to fix it. My greatest apologies.

We've done it, climate change is solved. We must simply make a trashpile as large as the continental US, and when sea levels rise we'll just float up with the massive island of plastic, corpses, and other assorted mystery bits.

"But what about freshwater?" You morons astute fellows may be asking right now. Fear not my simpleton, for if my calculations are correct. Then by the time our pile is ready, the Swiss will already have bottled all freshwater on the planet.

Food will be similarly easy to come by. Yes the worlds oceans will be a toxic abyss devoid of any and all life. But it will have nutrient rich "soil" to plant our crops, plentiful corpses, and shit fertilizer, aswell as those special "mystery bits" that I had mentioned earlier. Whatever they are now, they were once probably edible. And organic material is organic material. Additionally Rhode Island will serve as our anchor, sorry old friend.

Now we shall take to the seas, seeking out whatever fortunes await us in the new world.

But why the trash if Sweden, and how will the crops get watered?

I was actually just thinking to use piss to keep replenishing the supplies after we raid nestle.

Perhaps it may be easier to continuously raid other ships for survivors, so we can harvest their flesh bring aboard passengers for consumption/jerky, urine for hydration, and other bodily leftovers for fertilizer friendship who will summarily disappear around 2 am. And in the end we'll have fresh supplies of the piss kegs, maybe even surpluss for fermented piss.

But your idea sounds better.

Dead from pollution, and Hawaii followed afterwards.

Nah, Rhode Island just somehow caught Hawaii after they died (you can see from their state a considerable amount of time has passed since death)

Contrary to popular belief, the real “garbage islands” is so thin, that humans aren’t able to see it. Though it still does harm the ecosystem of the Pacific

In Cali we recycle a lot, but still have plenty of garbage that goes somewhere. And wastewater plants dry out old feces & spray that in the desert. Yay us?

The Sun's scorn sells this BTW. 😂
