    This project management is a master piece. 1.) Everything is based on science instead of ideology/politics 2.) Everything is based on collaboration instead of accusations 3.) Everybody can get in involved in a inviting way instead of pushing, 4.) the results are great and valued even if it takes much longer as the initial guess - true agile. Keep on going and write a book about it. Many organizations can learn a lot from it.

    It is incredible what The Ocean Cleanup has done and continues to do. Watching these videos there is a tremendous amount of trash that now won't wash up onto our beaches or reach the ocean. There also is a lot of natural biomass that is being picked up as well. Do we know if there will be a negative effect if this natural biomass is no longer reaching ocean water?

Nevertheless, it is also clear that you need a working disposal system and education of the locals otherwise the trash flood will never stop I can see that in, my supposed calls first world that when the area is a little bit more rural systems collapse and people trash the area because it’s much easier than the effort to go to the next trash bin!

      @rwild9356 3 месяца назад

      Both are important, especially because a lot of high-pollution rivers are the result of poverty (like no access to garbage collection systems). When that's not really the case- like, I would guess, with the river that the Ocean Cleanup services in LA- then it's great that the Interceptor is there to add a safety net.

    Possibly your best video yet, good drone shots. Placement is critical with only getting a small slice of the river due to shipping traffic. Was it an educated guess at a bend? Or did you try different areas? Looks very calm and wide, I doubt there will be problems with rock and roll heavy flow rapids.
