- Today #TeamSeas campaign was launched with the goal to raise 30M dollars to remove 30M pounds of trash. The Ocean Cleanup and Ocean Conservancy were chosen as the non-profit partners for cleaning up trash in rivers, oceans, and beaches. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly/371k8sN
The campaign is initiated by MrBeast and Mark Rober, two content creators on RUclips. It is a follow-up to their widely successful TeamTrees campaign, launched in 2019 that raised over 20M dollars to plant 20M trees.

To rid the oceans of plastic, we need to not only clean up what is already out there but also stop new plastic from entering the ocean: we need to close the tap.
Rivers are the main source of ocean plastic pollution. They are the arteries that carry waste from land to the ocean. Our research found that 1000 rivers are responsible for roughly 80% of the pollution.
Working together with government leaders and private corporations, our goal is to tackle these 1000 most polluting rivers. How? By deploying Interceptors.
The Interceptor is The Ocean Cleanup’s answer for river plastic waste. It is the first scalable solution to prevent plastic from entering the world’s oceans from rivers.

There should be a live streaming of interceptor on RUclips, with stats on how much garbage is being cleaned up.
It would be a great marketing for these machines
hell yea it would
This is a wonderful idea! They should definitely do it. It will show people that these things exist, and indeed work
this is a brillant idea
Great idea S
@@kylesmith1705 Thank you 🙏
this is the kind of publicity that really changes something
I wish Boyan received the same amount of attention Greta Thunberg does. At least he is trying to produce a workable solution to a serious problem rather protesting. The environment needs actions not words.
Oh absolutely. I'd certainly never heard of this, so I'm sure many others haven't either. 30M tons isn't a lot, what matters more is the awareness it raises
@@Ken-nv2hl words create actions
@@mcyg2079 Ok then it's been 3 years. Name one company that has started because they were inspired from her words. What is their impact been battling climate change?
The biggest impact she has made is getting people around the world to walk out on the street to protest about how we should do something instead pushing for a plan on how we will achieve it.
Imagine the impact if governments invested billions of dollars into these types of programs!
This is so cool. I just saw this campaign recently, as I was like "this guy looks familiar". I did some digging, and it turns out I saw Boyan's TED talk in school when I was 12, talking about putting floating nets in ocean gyres to collect, recycle, and sell plastics collected there. Now, 9 years later, I get to see where this whole thing ended up. Nice to see he never stopped working on it! :D
Leaving this here to boost engagement metrics. You guys need the algorithm's attention :)
Watching the Interceptor scoop up the trash is so satisfying... kudos to Boyan!
the bfdi guy is here!
CARYKH???
Hi cary!
WOW I actually cheered out loud when I saw this collaberation between you and Mark Rober. It's the perfect boost for you guys in terms of money and publicity. This will help make your catch and intercept fleet a reality sooner rather than later. Let's make every dollar totally worth it!
Imo the publicity from being associated with jimmy aka mr beast has a MUCH larger impact! Jimmy has 72M mark only has 20M. It was also Jimmy’s idea bc he hit 30M subscribers...
There are also 100 other youtubers promoting this! So it truly is a collective effort!
@@thesilentone4024 The money is divided between two non-profit organisations. And it is public how much money there is made. So he can't just take the money and leave. Also there are 1000 creators participating, it's not just mr. Beast. Even IF he just took all the money and left, this would still be a massive publicity boost for The Ocean Cleanup and other organisations. That is the main purpose of this campaign to make everybody aware of this problem and motovating them to do something about it.
@@codimarie090 mr beast 73 m
And that's just his main channel
I'm SO glad he's involved.
@markrober make this thing..... Cooler.
I genuinly got emotional when I saw that TeamSeas was supporting The Ocean Cleanup. You guys just got proof of technology with Jenny and now you'll be able to really scale the Interceptor program and it really feels like we're getting there :,D
I'm so happy that after years this project is finally having it's bright light. I have following this channel for some years now.
$50 on a new game or $50 to clean the ocean. Damn this is an easy choice, I'd rather my money go to cleaning the ocean. This news is incredible. Well done guys!!!!
Hell ya
yay your making a great choice!!
I’d rather buy the game …
@@soloners and their pfp is a boat on water
@@soloners lmao
The problem lies at the source. Those poor people have no other way to dispose of the waste than to throw it on the ground, because no one collects it. The next step should be to try and solve *that* problem, so no future garbage boats are required.
I like how mark rober is just playing with the kids and having fun whereas the others are working hard and explaining everything else. But anyways I love your efforts great job guys
:)
Mark "Flippin" Rober😍
THIS is going to be AWESOME (if it wasn't already)!
So excited to see that this is actually happening. My heart is full, I will talk to my kids about donating money to this campaign for Christmas/birthdays instead of getting more plastic toys.
I'm glad this is getting promoted more. This is one project that is worth getting behind. Can't wait to see what product we are going to get for the plastics pulled out after the second voyage into the great patch.
Not worth
Marvelous to see this great success! This is really improving our world!
To improve our world yes we Need It but First should be more education don't joke throw in distance junk garbage inside lakes and rives and use them as Flush water to reach Toilet Oceans. If we like cleans water It Is essential cooperation to restore its healthy beauty.🌊💙
My concern is that after all this Clean up, the local municipalities might dispose off the waste improperly resulting in a certain percentage of the waste back into the rivers. It's a great initiative, I fully support it but it's important that we ensure the loop is complete with proper end disposal of garbage thus ensuring that it does not return to the ocean.
I believe people would be more aware about this issue and will at least acknowledge how their day-to-day behaviour is a part of the problem. Team seas made it to tv stations, almost all across the youtube platform, and etc. Although, we absolutely cannot expect these poorer communities to change as they have no other options given to them. Just ask them, do they want to live in garbage piles? Of course not.
Anyways, I'm going on a ramble here but I thank you for letting me have an excuse to share my 2 cents. Cheers!
Mark Rober is one of the best RUclipsrs ever, to see him working with you is so awesome 👌
Super stoked for this initiative! This has been a favourite charity of mine to support. 🙂🌊
If you constantly live streamed the cleanup on the interceptor in real time, people (me) would watch it for ASMR! It is so satisfying!
Hey team, the design has an escape route for fish but not the floating vegetation, which is being included in your measurements as trash. I wonder if that's something that could be improved upon? Looks very effective at removing pollution but perhaps also effective at removing plants and maybe that needs an ecologist to measure the significance and keep an eye on to ensure the local living ecosystem isn't collateral damage in this brilliant idea. Amazing overall, well done!
Good suggestion. Hopefully they will see this comment and improve their design
The green stuff you can see is an invasive species that is detrimental to the survival of other vegetation since it soaks up all the minerals and energy that they depend on. Picking this up is actually good for the ecosystems in the rivers, so there ya have it.
@@joepsips787 the more you know. Didn't realize it was an invasive species
@@joepsips787 What is it?
@@heavymetalbassist5 watch mark robers video he talks about how the vegetation collected it invasive
Great advocacy and invention too for saving our mother nature. The Earth needs inventor/scientist someone like you. KUDOS. Great job. Thank you.
When Mark said "properly dispose of it," what does he mean? Where does all this trash go?
Also, I'd love to hear more detail on what is being done with the local communities to reduce and clean up the garbage piling up.
Recycle
@@Destroyer-dk6oj You can only reuse certain plastics, and only a limited amount of times before it becomes too degraded and useless.
Series Consideration - I was wondering the same thing. If it fell into the river from the dump, taking it back to the dump seems pointless. If it's being recycled, why isn't there recycling before it gets to the dump? If it's being shipped out, why not ship out the trash before it hits the water? A lot of unanswered questions here.
@@pattyjordan7620 Yes I agree it's great to get this crap out of the ocean, but education of people to stop throwing it in there to start with is the most important, as well to BAN single use plastic containers in these poor countries, and implement recycling facilities in these countries, the gov't of these countries need to step up and take responsibility for what they are doing to the oceans, many question not answered with this incentive.
@@zaneh6224 what? Ban single use plastics specifically in POOR communities? You're basically telling them to stop surviving. Please consider that they do not have the privilege that most of us here have. Instead of telling them to stop consuming what they can only afford, the RICH producers should be the one to stop being irresponsible in the production. The poor are not the problem, they're victims too. If the rich stop hogging all the resources and the people of power do something about these communities, most of the problems will be resolved.
this is what i love most, the fact that the two fan bases connected you both... it just couldn't happen before a time like ours. This massive interconnectedness is just incredible
You guys are the future and I absolutely love this collaboration!❤
Now these places just need local garbage collection service to prevent it from going into the rivers in the first place. A few hours once a week where the local citizens collecting trash and place it in dumpsters placed in neighborhoods could make the entire country cleaner and healthier for the locals and drastically cut down on the amount of trash in the rivers as well.
Yeah the #1 goal of every country should have a trash system, like in the U.S. That's a must have, should be a primary goal to implement a system like the one here in every city. I definitely take all the dumpsters and trash cans in my area for granted. There are 6 giant dumpsters and 6 recycling dumpsters just in my apartment complex. With instructions on what can be recycled, etc. There are also trash cans along the streets, in public parks, freaking everywhere! Every house has their own trash can & recycling bin. I can't imagine what I'd do without them. Or what I'd do if the city didn't come by and empty them once a week. Cuz that shit gets full.
This is amazing seeing this develop from 4 years ago when my social science teacher introduced me to the Ocean Cleanup.
There weren't much subs back then, but when we get the amount of eyes Mark can pull in, we gon get a huge rise in the community. LES GOOOOOOOOOOO✨️✨️
Been following the Ocean Cleanup for years and this is really great news, glad this happened.
Proud of our dutch man!!!
😭😭😭😭💯💯 happy tears for all the things so thankful that there are such good people in the world who care about something beyond themselves
These are the kind of videos that should go viral… it brings positive changes to the communities they work with and the world we live in👍👍👍
Just love your work. We all support you! Keep it up. God bless and guide your path.
Glad to see you have the partners of your work, great job! Thank you so much for everyone and everything you do 👍💪🙏🙏💖
Truly out of this world what you and your team have done! My God bless and magnify your efforts!
This is going to be such a huge success! Love it!
What a life this guy has made for himself while doing great things! Amazing
Love the new short updates! Very creative, well done guys ✨
Fantastic work! We need more people like this!
What a great idea to work and promote together with great Mark Rober!!! Just gifted 20 € to the initiative 😎
Love it, you guys deserve this so much
I am so grateful for what you do and so proud of your efforts! Mat God richly bless your lives. THANK YOU so so much!
And big guy you certainly should have a sense of pride for what you're doing. You & everyone else in all these project world wide are making so much difference to the rivers, seas, oceans & all the creatures & corals that inhabit them. I salute you all. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I saw Mark's video and immediately sent this out to my river cleaning friends. Good job!
Boyan you really are an inspiration. Instead of just protesting and complaining, you came up with a solution! Hats off to you sir!
Loving these last few videos!
Excellent work. Thank you!
Touches my heart so much! Thank you for doing that guys. I want to help.
Hi Boyan! I remember the unveiling of the interceptor 2 years ago. I'm so happy how much your project has grown! Thank you for everything you've done!
We need a LOT more of people like you
Bro this is amazing, please capitalize on this opportunity and use it to it's full potential to get people aware of this issue
Really happy to see this big publicity on the project, this is really nice!
We should build recycling companies directly at the villages with high pollution problems, providing work to residents and taking care of the problem at the source. From garbage grinders to materials separation and preparation for reuse.
You guys are awesome. Great work!
Keep up the great work we need more people like you doing important work for our planet.
You all are my heroes!!! Cheering you on and everyone who makes a move for the good of the planet!!!
This is really going to get this stuff going! Before you couldn’t really get over 100k views but now you’ll def get much more
this really warms my heart
"GO OCEAN CLEANUP 2024" AWESOME VIDEOS!!
Can’t believe this channel doesn’t have millions of views and subscribers. Incredible work by the guys who are making this happen. It is so badly needed
It’s kind of crazy to think that a huge global multi million fund raising campaign is needed in order to fix an infrastructure problem the local government neglects to solve for this (poor) community.
I hope the local community + OC + UN can find out some kind of solution. The rivers and local trash are important.
That's because most politicians work for corporations not people
Great initiative. I have just donated 100 USD to remove 100 pounds of trash!
The huge cost of the recent gathering of world leaders ended without much being achieved. All that wasted money would have paid for dozens of these amazing boats. We certainly need a few deployed here in the UK.
Love this! I really hope this catapults your success in cleaning more!
You guys are doing a great job! Keep up the good work!
Awareness is key! Spread the word of plastic pollution!
Thank you Ocean Cleanup Team!
It's so awesome when two of your favourite RUclipsrs do a Collab!! Awesome!!
Love you guys for this
I have been following The Ocean Cleanup for a while. This is such a great partnership and will get alot of trash disposed of
This deserves more views!
The day when i heard about this program to now .........These are some of the happiest days in my life ..I always wanted to do something but I wasn't having man power but now when I am watching them doing so much ... I just can't explain my feeling ... It feels so good .
This channel needs more subs !
Legends!
I donated to teamseas a few days ago. Someone had to tackle this - good on you for being the ones to do it!
Wish I could donate a dollar, but I don’t have a account and I’m not a adult yet.
No Mark, not "we" intercepted it, but The Ocean Cleanup.
Boyan isn't getting any credit from any of the channels promoting this.
Typical American way of overreacting
@@michie666 I know its sad. Especially when you consider intercept 001 and 002 have been in place since 2016 and Interceptor 004 has been in place for a year and Mark is taking credit for it.
To me it looked like he said “I’m not really doing anything. I’m employing your technology to win our bet.” I’ve been following Boyan since last year, and we should know The Ocean Cleanup is the ones doing the real work. But I guess this is good publicity and fundraising. Perhaps the action can be loud enough for institutional change, but I doubt it. We’re just mitigating the damage that’s been happening for the past century.
This is a truly beautiful effort
Great job to everyone involved! 👍
Thank you guys for cleaning my country. I tried to colab with you guys a year ago but couldn't get through. Good luck and will donate
great collab i was subscribed since a long time already
Thanks you so much for what you lot are doing never stop give us all a better future
Amazing project
Great work! 👏👏👏
As a recent purchaser of the sunglasses I can vouch for their quality. Fantastic lenses. Great work everyone involved in this project.
This Channel Deserve 1 Million Subscribers!
I love this beach clean up
Best climate innovation ever. So simple So smart.
This is absolutely incredible.
Hello Sr. Boyan Slat Fantastic work,Im big fan of the Ocean Cleanup, much respect and love from San Francisco of Macoris Dominican,Republic peace
Thank u for saving mother
Amazing humans, keep going
Glad to see everyone have to do about the environment 👍❤️
You guys are amazing
You all are so cool🙌
Love you guys! 😁
Adding a “top 10 donators” list to your website could lead to good competition between those who can really afford it at the very top to donate larger amounts to this cause to be at the top of this list! It’s good gamified PR for them and just adds to this great cause for you!
Imagine Jeff bezos donating $5m, is coming first, just to be out donated with $6m by Elon and they go back and forth for number 1.
If you only donate to ''win'' something your donating for the wrong reasons. If you care about the oceans you support in what way you can for the ocean. And not for your own ego boost.
@@amberanime
A person can have more than one purpose behind doing a thing, and the more incentive, the more donation money, the more trash can be intercepted and cleaned, regardless of whether there was some intent, other than the will to help, behind these extra donations.
Can't believe it's already 2 years ago that the interceptor was unveiled. This partnership is well deserved. Keep up the good work
Absolutely so awesome to see this. So happy for You guys. POWER OF THE INTERNET! :D
So inspirational!😄
Respekt to Ocean cleanup!
This makes me feel hopeful and enthusiastic.
This is great and i think you could have even more impact if you also tow some of those containers to the communities upriver so they could throw their trash directly in the container.
Two of our greatest modern day inventors and one hell of a beast 👏 endless possibilities
If only world organisations worked this transparent and efficient we would have solved this issue years ago.
Will follow this!
