- This animated video shows our vision of a future in which the Great Pacific Garbage Patch - three times the size of France and containing up to 100,000,000 kilograms of plastic waste - is consigned to the history books. Subscribe to our channel to stay updated: bit.ly/371k8sN.
After successfully achieving Proof of Technology in 2021 with System 002, we are now transitioning to System 03, our first full-scale ocean cleanup system and the blueprint for our future fleet.
Our projections show that deploying ten systems based on System 03 will allow us to clean up the entire Great Pacific Garbage Patch for good - bringing us closer to completing our mission of ridding the oceans of plastic.

just amazing guys, great job!
As soon as I have investment capital, you are going to be my first investment!!!
Thanks so much!!!🙏💟🙏
All governments on this planet should pay towards it . Make them sit up n take notice of what we've done. It's incomprehensible to me that its got so bad n no one actually cared enough to clear this up
You people are doing some of the most important work in the world today. I hope I see an end to polluted waters in my lifetime due to your efforts.
This will actually have very little effect on the health of our oceans. The fishing industry does far more damage to life under the sea than plastic does.
Sorry, you won't. No one is addressing the causes of this. It will only get bigger, or if they eliminate it, it will come back.
I wish that were even close to true. This will clean up floating garbage only, a lot of what we throw into the ocean sinks, including most plastics and many pieces of junk that are part plastic and part metal. I saw one video from a Japanese exploration submersible that went to the bottom of the Marianas trench. One of the first things I noticed on the seabed in the path of their spotlight was a plastic bag. One of James Cameron's videos taken in the same trench showed another plastic bag. By 2030 79% of all the plastic ever made will be in the sea, and this effort, valuable though it is, won't reduce that by more than 10% Now 10% is a valuable contribution and I support the effort but far more research and effort is needed to cure the problem, and one thing we need to do is to simply ban the use of plastic in many areas where it is currently used. I mean completely ban it, without exceptions. Plastic packaging for household goods like fridges and washing machines should be banned, cardboard should be used. Plastic bags for food should also be banned; go back to using paper and where ordinary paper won't do use waxed paper. Milk is sold in plastic or plastic lined cardboard cartons, there should be a return to waxed cardboard instead. We need to do these things as well as continue this wonderful effort by The Ocean Cleanup or the results will still be a disaster for mankind.
Picking up the garbage on the surface is a great start but it will do only a fraction of what is required.
yeah lets just hope after this is gone we don't create a new one
we need to work on that too and it might be the bigger challenge to convince the world governments to make sure no more garbage is thrown into rivers and the oceans
@@dhayes5143 this is not their only move against it, now they clean this patch and later eventually will stop the trash at is source
I hope to see that huge patch gone in my lifetime.
How old are you
@@nakshtraroshal good question indeed
Hope you can...
35... ive watched that thing grow larger and larger and finally someone has a plan. Finally someone wants to fix the the blight we have added to our oceans and make it better for not only the fish and other oceanic organisms but for us and my children and hopefully their children.
They plan 5 years process to clean it up, after scaling. (if my memory serves me well)
In 1990 I sailed from Hawaii to Vancouver. We hit the Center of the pacific high and the water was beautiful and calm. Then styrofoam became evident then plastic and all kinds of garbage. Mostly dumped by cruise ships and transport vessels. From a person who never put any garbage in a body of water I was deeply mortified! I wrote a letter to the Vancouver Sun, which of course was never printed. We powered through this garbage patch for almost a day and a half, doing about six knots of speed, this patch was over two hundred miles across.
I am so grateful to see ‘The Ocean Cleanup’ doing this important task!
Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️
On the up side I saw a small pod of bulga whales during the calm and they came to investigate us, one swan right to the stern of the boat, we turned off our motor, due to no wind, and that beautiful being gently bumped the stem to say hi and swam off. It was something I will never forget.
Thank you
Love to all ❤️
Do no harm 🌈
We are all one 🌎
FYI...Plastic bottles were introduced to the world in 1973 so we’ve been chucking them into the trash and oceans for approximately 50 years. This cleanup will become a permanent part of our lives. But it will get better and this group is the reason why. They are working with other companies and worldwide organizations to attack cleaning up the earth and have many options available to them to do it. This means you and I and everyone who wants to contribute to this effort will have an opportunity to help them clean up this problem. I admire this man and I applaud others who seek to duplicate his work. Have a great day!
Ocean Cleanup should have 100 million subscribers or more, come on people, this project is helping the whole world, with out the ocean life as we know it is over.
It brings me great pleasure to see this happening.
Beautiful animation! Can’t wait for this to be reality with an expending fleet.
The quality of the footage was so good, I found myself wondering whether it’s animation or real footage. Settled for being both.
@@BalboaBaggins some are not, most are
NEVER ONCE REALIZED!!!! IM DUMB LOL
They also need to invest in containing this garbage on land so it doesent end up in ocean again like in India if they're later won't Fork out the money why can't a rich American donate the money to build a better containment grid for the recyclables in India and America needs to take care of their own garbage instead of sending it over to other countries or they don't have the money or at least a good enough leader to Fork over the money to contain all that stuff and quit being so cheap and trying to get rich honestly all you need is food on your table of roof over your head clothes you need to get rid of the stigmatism of becoming rich and hurting others in the process to get it
There’s a group on tik tok who have been actively cleaning out the oceans ALOT lately i forgot the name of the group though
Nobel Prizes all around!
This is one of the most impressive and beautiful animated CGI videos I've seen for advertisement. Cause the ones we often see on our daytime commercials, looks like it was done by an intern. Compliments aside, thank you to the people involved in this massive project that could change our world for the better.
❤🙏
CGI animated video?
Human ingenuity is critical to our future. Visionaries like Boyan and others should be celebrated, but not idolised. Visionaries need feet firmly planted on the ground to properly support their heads that strive towards the clouds.
What?
Bloody love you all. You're amazing. Love your passion and determination to finding a solution. You cant solve all the problems that contribute to this environmental nightmare but that doesn't hold you back. You're doing more than governments and wider cross government efforts. Action, not just word. Congratulations!
Thank you Ocean cleanup crew!!!!!! Just WOW!
Thats incredible it really is, so glad I lived to see someone actually doing it instead of the decades talking about it.
Now imagine if the intrinsically greedy capitalists didn't own everything.
This work would have had started all of those decades ago without them using their capital (wealth that you and I created) for their propaganda to stop any regulations on having to be responsible for the messes they created for profit.
You are (some of the) heroes of our time.
On the frontier of a cleaner future. Brilliant work.
Not sure if I'm more amazed by the actual work being done, or the insane quality of this animation. Either way, keep up the good work!
I say it every time but Thank You for all you’re doing out there with the Pacific Garbage Patch cleanup. Really incredible !
What I love about you guys is real solutions and actual attempts. You guys actually do something unlike the government that just thinks throwing more money at a problem will fix it.
_"the government that just thinks throwing more money at a problem will fix it."_
Please pay better attention to politics. That's just a capitalist talking point to get you to believe that funding an ocean cleanup is untenable.
And yet these wonderful people are proving those capitalists 100% wrong, and showing that the capitalist propaganda has never been anything more than blatant lies.
The *last* thing capitalists want to do, and certainly never did, was throw money at it. That whole idea is ludicrous at best. All a capitalist cares about is the bottom line, and that is an indisputable truth.
in some cases, throwing money at the problem is exactly what is needed. when communities are impoverished to the point that basic life needs are a daily struggle, they often can't allocate energy to solving harder problems like trash management, climate change contributing quite a bit with extra flooding that moves garbage by the ton downstream to the seas. but when they gain a bit of financial independence we see developing areas start to tackle this problem, as we are all honestly happier with a well cared for environment
@@BikingWIthPanda government money doesn't help development
using real science
Agree 😊
Just the start. I lived and worked in Africa, Brazil, S.E. Asia and China. When you see open storm drains and major rivers choked with garbage all heading for the sea you know that re-cycling you coffee cup in the UK is a losing battle. Many of these countries also have huge barges that carry garbage out to sea, weigh it down and hope it sinks to the bottom. Until all that is stopped - it will never end.
So true, that's what I am thinking. The problem ist, someone found a way to make money out of it. As garbage is like gold If Ii can handle it. Also to stop garbage in the oceans you need to stop corruption in how many countries? Not just collecting it. 25 tons a turn with a lot of fuel... how does it make a difference for all of us? We all already eat fish with microplastic inside. The First Thing would be the companies who are selling their things in plastic, all over the world, especially in Asia. Look how they dispose their garbage... Throwing in creeks and rivers all around, bcs burning is forbidden and highly toxic. And the local authorities are full of corrupted people. So how can a small company make a difference. Please someone tell me. Please.
@@ChrisDraussen I also worked in Algeria. The pristine sand dunes of the Sahara are covered in plastic crap. It blows all over the place. Gets stuck on plants and fences and flaps for decades. The locals don't care - they firmly believe there is a place in heaven waiting for them and this world does not matter. Hence the issue in places like Indonesia. Jakarta's canals are a massive, toxic, clogged up mess so their answer is to tear down millions of acres of pristine rain forest to build a new capital - great move.
That trash you saw in SEA is contributed by the UK, most wealthy countries ship their plastic to China (until they stopped accepting it a few years back), Indonesia and other East Asian countries. Your recycled cup goes a long way, especially if you replace it with a reusable one.
@@ahsokaincognito Yes, some from UK. I ws in China in 2016 on the Pearl River and the trash was unreal. The Chinese also build mountains out of compacted 1 mtr blocks of rubbish. They stack it hundreds of feet high and then cover it in topsoil. Out of sight...gone.
Nice render! Marking it as such would probably be appropriate.
We are ready to defeat this problem and starting to live in a new world
Figure out how to deal with the microplastic and then you're really onto something significant
What you are doing is by and large the most impactful thing that anyone has thought to do for this earth. You should be awarded and celebrated as heros, superheros!!!! Thank you for all that you do!!!!
That will come. I see a movie about them coming out one day.
sadly... this was just an animation
@@MrUranium238 I mean looking at the success of system 2, I can see how system 3 would be even better
Cleaning up the previous generations' intentional blindspots. Love it
we have so much to do to keep it from coming back
I Love The Ocean Cleanup. This video is full of HOPE! Thank you so much for pushing forward with your massive projects and goals. We need to ALL work together to prevent garbage from entering our environment.
Not only this is a cool video, but also it it also great for our soul. So satisfying, I hope that this big patch will be just a bad memory
Saving the planet one load at a time, thank you!
Wow!! Good Work! Thank You and Thanks to your Sponsors! The Project sure has stepped up a few notches!! Bravo, everyone!!
Militry style precision, nothing but amazing ❤️
Excellent to have observed the ocean cleanup from early beginnings to latest success..
Very well done to all involved..
Wonderful! Thank you.
This is absolutely beautiful. Video editing and camera work is also top-notch! Thank you for all that you do. A lot of trash has already sunk to the bottom, does The Ocean Cleanup plan on doing dive cleanups in the future as well? If so I would like to take part in that. I do cleanups everyday in the Netherlands. Right now I'm cleaning ponds in my waders. We're in this together. Much love. 👍🙏🌎💚
Video editing and camera work i?? You know this is all CGI right??
@@Catani84 are you saying the garbage segments are CGI? Because that looks like real trash to me 😂
I doubt they will be able to get to the bottom of the ocean but would be a great idear 👍👍
@@milesthehousecollection4153 yeah good one but seriously....it's cgi...and it's not even realistic cgi. The whole clip looks like a videogame from 2015.
@@Catani84 If you read the description of the video, it tells you that it's animated. Because System 003 hasn't been deployed yet
Finally some good news.
lol
@@mcgaugh57 lololoololololololololololol
This is awesome! And I love your work so much. I just hope humans will be smarter in the future to prevent situations like this from even happening in the first place!
Clean where you are
This gives me shivers of joy it's so good to see this happening 🙏 Love and blessings to all of you working on the clean up.
the only ones out there doing what needs to be done and not just talking about it.... THANK YOU!!!!!
Absolutely fabulous work by an amazing company!! You guys are inspiring the world!
I told myself I wouldn’t cry.
The patch will be fed by more plastic I think. I am not a scientist... but logically thinking... It only stops If we do not throw or wash all this garbage into our oceans. I highly appreciate your effort.
And where are the others who proposed to clean the oceans? Maybe it would be a good thing to team up with one or the other?
watch their videos on the river clean ups, they're doing a lot to prevent more plastic from getting back in the water, but it's a huge undertaking
@@chriswhite702 how many polluted rivers are there worldwide? Hundreds? Thousands? It seems to be such a gigantic task 😟
will be commenting on all ocean cleanup videos cuz y'all are amazing
I am just here to say that I was apart of history with the ocean cleanup.
I really hope this animation helps you guys see your goal through to the end - for it's merely just the beginning. Even if and when the Pacific Garbage Patch is finally cleaned up, there are other, lesser known garbage patches in the other oceans of the world. Then of course, there's the likely possibility of the garbage patches reforming if the source of the problem - plastic production and pollution - isn't remedied. And then, with all that considered, there's still the issue of microplastics in just about every conceivable layer of the ecosystem.
I say this not with pessimism or rudeness. I merely say this determination and the hope that, once the Pacific Garbage Patch has been cleaned up, that people won't think that everything's suddenly fixed. This is but the first step in a long and lengthy, but absolutely necessary process if we don't want future generations to be swimming in garbage when they visit the beach or condemned to consider sea turtles and other marine life as only living in the past. We made this mess and we have a duty to only our planet, but to ourselves to fix it and see it through to the end.
I couldn't have said it better myself, and I wouldn't call that being pessimistic, more realistic. Half of plastics in the world were manufactured within the last 15 years, think about that. Along with needing more organizations like this removing ocean plastics directly, we also need recycling to indirectly remove future ocean plastic.
Your pervious video calculated the majority of debris is from sea vessels. Has your team developed or implemented new strategies or techniques in regards to securing equipment, especially nets, to the vessel in the event of a storm or something of similar circumstances? Or are you utilizing newer biodegradable materials in the event the equipment is lost at sea?
Genuine curiosity. Appreciate your work.
Thank you to all helping get this done!!!
Fantastic work folks, should talk to the U.N. and get paid for your efforts!! After all you are doing the world a favour!
Mad respect. Hope all will go well for the future and any similiar future projects. (Beaches, rivers, mangroves etc.)
Great presentation, even greater perspective! Thank to the whole team!! 😎
Absolutely fabulous !
God bless you all! My wife and I try so hard to make a difference for our planet on our small level! I'm glad to see someone taking on the big jobs
One of those few times someones makes a computer rendering of something that actually works :) Kudos to the team for your excellent work !
I've been going through a dark time and I really needed to see this. So much respect and love for these people.
You've learnt a lot on your way and you'd never gave up. Go ahead, you're amazing.
Awesome video! Team this up with stop single use plastic, standardize food containers (Kerr is already available for canning), and reusable standardized shipping boxes. Are any politicians working on something like this?
Not if the capitalists can stop it they aren't.
Our governments are run and ruined by them.
They just buy the laws to keep their unabated greed in power over humanity.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 while capitalism seeks only profits, individually we can do a lot. My wife and I have had the same water bottles since we met 15 years ago, use them exclusively (everyday) even on international travels bringing a self made carbon filter (we do but water bottles when traveling to very polluted areas). We do a lot of canning, make our own toiletries, have a self composting toilet in our garage, have a 3 acres bird sanctuary, pick up trash on our spare time (recycling what we pick up), most of our landscaping tools are electric, and buy as much local/organic food as we can. Capitalists have yet to stop us, but do provide some very cool technology along the way:)
I’ve been waiting since the beginning for y’all to get to do this. So so so stoked
This is beautiful innovation and humans at their best. You give me hope. I hope others do to.
This is simply amazing. What you are doing is to really solve one of the most important issues of our time! And you are making it real! Thank you!
Gave me chills
Thank you Boyan for never giving up on your dream. I've watched you since your first video and first talked about the problem with the trash in our oceans. Your making history and will forever be remembered as the man who stepped up to save our rivers and oceans, the life blood of our planet. Thank you for helping to make the feature brighter for all of us.
Thank you!! This is amazing! Your determination has brought our world this far in cleaning up our ocean. Thank you!! We'll support you in whatever way we can.
Never has clearing garbage been this soothing!
Great work
Blessed Be all souls participating in this monumental effort. Thank you for loving Our Mother! 🌍🌏🌎
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all you dedication and very hard work!
This is why I do university. The positive impact this has keeps me going :))❤❤❤
Great work and great people behind that project! Love it, big thanks to all who are part of it!
You guys deserve everything in the world.
Much appreciated keep it up guys
Thank you for your hard and efficient work. This is one of those projects where you clearly see the quick results and there will be always someone yelling that this is not enough but it is a great start to start removing plastic at a big scale.
Love it! Let's make it a reality
you guys need more attention, this is amazing work your doing
Thanks for the animation. This initiative gave me great hope to have a cleaner ocean for us and for the generations to come.
I have heard alot of naysayers saying it is not possible to clean up all the ocean plastic with such "slow" methods, but these innovations are the beginning of the solution. Eventually systems will evolve and become efficient by orders of magnitude, and once that potential is unlocked the only thing needed is more funding.
Good on you guys.
Great presentation!!!
The Ocean Cleanup team making history.
Always a highlight of my day when I view your videos!
Amazing work!! Projects like this give hope.
So thankful for this amazing group! Won’t it be wonderful to one day know that the oceans are clean. Now, if people would just stop fishing (and eating fish), the world’s oceans might have some life left in it, when it’s clean.
Thanks for everything you're doing to make this a better world to live in!
I love you guys!! You're awesome!!
I can't believe it ! This is only only system 3 ! ! ! 😳😳😳😳😳 The system is soooo much more advanced than the first one ! ! !
Just beautiful ! What you guys doing is an art ! I was the very first small donates of this project. So happy to see the project flourishing nicely.
Spectacular animation! You are doing an awesome job.
This is beautiful to see. It breaks my heart to see how the ocean gets treated
Thank you for your wonderful work 🙏🏼🌱
Great animation! I really hope The Ocean Cleanup succeeds cleaning up The Great Pacific Garbage Patch in my lifetime. You all are doing an amazing job!
AMAZING. . .THANK YOU . . .THANK YOU SO MUCH. . .YOU ALL ARE SO WONDERFUL!!!
I have been praying for this organization to be successful in their quest to clean the rivers n ocean of all this garbage... God bless u
Good work :)
This makes me want to cry. Boyan, you’re finally doing it!
Harvest on transit…You guys an inspiration♥️ God bless you all.
I'm proud to be a part in something which will benefit mankind and the world :)
Soo inspiring!
I absolutely love watching these mini films. Please do more ❤️❤️ I could watch that thing pick up garbage all day long. 😂😂
That is both sad & satisfying at the same time. Sad that this problem exists & satisfying of a job well done.
Beautiful, crushing, devastating, inspirational, so much gratitude. Which I had a millions dollars or more.
Fantastic work, when can we have systems 004-010 operational?
You guys are legend s. I feel a new hope for our planet. Bless you all
I will never tire of looking at trash dump onto that deck.
I really respect and appreciate the work you do.
Do you have any thoughts on how to clean some seas? Black sea is amazingly beautiful but it has been polluted for so long. If cleaned, it's beaches would rival any other in the world.
This a 1000 x 1000 times.🙏🏼♥️🌍 Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Amazing I just did a beach clean up with my toddler the other day. Let’s all do our part!
