MK Blog: Cleaning Up Bali’s River

“For the past 8 months, we have been busy cleaning rivers in Bali, Indonesia. We have collected over 300,000 pounds of plastic and our cleanup operation is growing quickly! We are catching this plastic through our 50 TrashBarriers that we have installed in our rivers, with the goal of preventing plastic pollution from entering the ocean. We’ll be installing 50 more of these this year!“

Good morning! After a few years of wallowing in the worst, most depressing news, I vowed to seek out stories of people doing inspiring work – cleaning up and protecting our environment, serving and treating others with dignity and respect, caring for animals, working to solve huge problems facing our society, and generally improving the quality of life on earth for all.

Turns out, if you look, you’ll find plenty of examples of inspiring, positive, hopeful news! People are doing great things, taking responsibility for preserving our beautiful planet, and boldly exploring new (and ancient) ways of co-existing.

Since I’m feeding all this stuff into my own brain, I have decided to start sharing what I find as a blog. The mission of Mister Kipley is to help people experience joy, health, comfort, and peace, and the topics I write about here will all relate to this mission in some way.

I firmly believe that what we focus on determines our reality – rather than focusing on differences and lack, I do my best to keep my focus on simple solutions to our biggest challenges.
