All well and good, but we do still need the organic material in the creeks and rivers, otherwise they would be sterile, or riddled with algae cause the fertilizer run off still makes it through. How about we don't buy/sell/import/export anything that uses non-biodegradable packaging. This will work well in the interim I suppose. If only there was a way they could separate the rubbish from the leaves... although I suppose if the river is surrounded by organic material and it's purely fed by run off the organic material will get in there eventually, however it still won't stop rubbish from blowing in. If all packaging was bio-degradable/compostable, it wouldn't matter so much.
@@ANMA133 when the drain sock breaks off then it can still pollute water ways and most of the stuff it traps is organic matter, filling up landfills faster with stuff that isn't even plastic.
@off spec NO, plastic if left abandoned can break from the sun weakining it and also the drainage sock moving around will break it. Also no one wants more plastic demand and if it breaks all the trash at once will be free being hard to clean up. *ALSO AUSTRALIAN WILDFIRES WILL DESTRIY THE DRAIN SOCK MAKING AIR POLLUTION* THIS is not at all a solution Australia is a failure you can tell by their 60% dead great barrier reef.
Hi there - it's made from rope. More details are available in the news story: www.abc.net.au/news/2019-06-09/drain-sock-kwinana-pollution-solution-takes-world-by-storm/11190266

Simple, yet, very effective idea. That's clever engineering!
Is there an update on this? I want to know how it's been holding up and how much litter has been collected since then.
It is made of metallic wires.
I am the designer of the system at UNSW/Centennial Park, Sydney in 1996. Nowhere any credit is given for that so far.
Hi, you design this can we work together how do I contact you.
excellent ..we are replicating it in Ghana for 8th June 2021 World Oceans Day

It's purely run off from roads and whatnot
Simple yet brilliant
Kindly tell me what type of raw material use in socks?.
How often are the nets cleaned out? This is a wonderful idea.
Another article indicated in 6 months they had to clean them out 3 times and collected over 815lbs of trash that they sort/recycle/compost/dispose of.

That one person: Imma break this streak
I disliked the video because the drain sock is made of plastic and makes the problem worse
@@insectbite1714 actually by recycling plastic and turning it into a drain sock amkes it better

where can we purchase these nets from ?
So is the net re-useable or not
what material is the net made from

Nothing in the story on that link, that tells what the rope is made of...
@@meheretoday6968 yeah, if the rope is Nylon, and it's not recycled plastic, then the point is moot
what material
@@dacibov get a grip
I wonder what Post 10 makes of this
Good
why isn't the whole world doing it
please answer😭
Nice
cool
👌100% cleaning
Would it not also catch fish?
what fish? everything died there
In just a second it will be full in india
I literally never seen so much trash in the streets/train stations in my entire life than when I visited India.
