I wonder if there is a way to ditch the ISS without contributing to oceanic pollution. I get that this is likely a low-cost solution (disassembling it and transporting it wouldn't be cheap) but it would be nice to not contribute to the trash already floating around.

As long as you remove any toxic stuff ahead of time, dumping the metal isn't so bad. It will become a thriving ecosystem on the ocean floor.
