THE OCEAN CLEANUP
The Ocean Cleanup develops technologies to extract, prevent, and intercept plastic pollution.
The Ocean Cleanup’s goal is to fuel the world’s fight against oceanic plastic pollution by initiating the largest cleanup in history.
Mankind dumps millions of tons of plastic into our oceans every year.
An ambitious project slated to begin in the next decade will help eliminate existing waste by collecting trash in specific regions of the Pacific — but it’s vital for the rest of us to enact sustainable solutions if we want to avoid creating the same problem all over again.
That said, few of us really understand the situation firsthand.
“It’s quite an abstract thing to talk about. It’s very far away for people,” Boyan Slat, founder of The Ocean Cleanup, told The Huffington Post in an interview in September 2015.
Slat, who’s heading the plan to build a 62-mile, trash-capturing wall in the Pacific, didn’t have his own awakening until he tried to get his diver’s license.

If seeing the waste meant something to him, perhaps it will mean something to you. We’ve collected a few images to put the Pacific’s trash crisis into perspective.
