The Ocean Cleanup is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and scaling technologies to rid the world's oceans of plastic pollution. Founded by Boyan Slat in 2013, the organization employs a dual strategy: intercepting plastic in rivers to prevent it from reaching the oceans and cleaning up existing oceanic plastic, particularly in areas like the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. With a goal to remove 90% of floating ocean plastic by 2040, The Ocean Cleanup has already removed millions of kilograms of plastic and continues to innovate in waste management and recycling technologies. Their unique approach leverages ocean currents to concentrate plastic for extraction, making them a leader in environmental sustainability and marine conservation.
