This is truly amazing. These people are wonderful people and are trying to act for the Earth, unlike some ignorant people. People who leave any idiotic comment about how this is "stupid" or anything negative about it seriously need help. Open your eyes, this is happening.

You're a major idiot who can't use correct grammar. Why don't you go die, it'll benefit lots.

I hope people will start to finally realize what we're doing to the oceans. Y ISN'T ANY1 LISTENING! RECYCLE PPL!

It's not a waste, it's recycling. It's a waste to stick it in a landfill like you probably do. And no, it's not killing any marine life. It's a raft, made out of plastic, give me one way it could be killing anything.

Is that a live animal they have on board with them? It looks like a rabbit or something that they are keeping in the airplane fuselage. I hope they know it is a major U.S. Customs violation to bring any live animal into the Hawaiian Island chain. That is how new diseases are introduced into their delicate ecosystem. These guys could face major Federal Prison time if they get caught!
