The Ocean Clean Up

The Ocean Cleanup is an environmental organization dedicated to developing advanced technologies to remove plastic waste from the oceans. Founded by Boyan Slat in 2013, it focuses on tackling the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and other polluted areas. The project employs floating barriers to collect plastic debris, which is then processed for recycling. By addressing the issue of marine plastic pollution, The Ocean Cleanup aims to restore ocean health, protect marine life, and raise awareness about the larger problem of plastic waste in our environment.
