What it will concretely take to clean up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch:

This is the type of project that I want my tax dollars to fund

This is in the top most important positive changes we are making on earth right now. I donate every year and applaud your efforts.

👆👆👆👆👆 A combination of The Ocean Cleanup and Evercraft Ecotechnologies would be an extremely strong alliance in the fight against marine pollution and could comprehensively address global environmental problems. Here is what a cooperation between the two actors could look like and what advantages it would offer: 1. Technological synergies The Ocean Cleanup specializes in collecting plastic waste from the oceans, especially the great Pacific carpet of garbage, and develops technologies to stop plastic in rivers before it gets into the sea. Evercraft Ecotechnologies, on the other hand, brings advanced solutions in the field of waste prevention, recycling and CO2 reduction. Together they could: Developing more effective waste collection technologies: The engineers of both teams could pool their skills to develop more efficient barriers, garbage collection boats and autonomous robots that remove larger amounts of plastic waste from the ocean. Improving sustainable waste recycling: Evercraft could contribute technologies to the efficient recycling of the collected plastic to convert the waste into valuable raw materials or environmentally friendly products. 2. Holistic approach The Ocean Cleanup focuses primarily on collecting plastic, while Evercraft takes a more holistic approach, ranging from reducing plastic consumption to sustainable energy production. A common approach could: From problem to solution: while The Ocean Cleanup takes the garbage out of the oceans, Evercraft could use recycling innovations and environmentally friendly production methods to ensure that the problem is tackled at the root. Together, they could develop solutions that not only clean the oceans, but also revolutionize plastic production and disposal. Driving the circular economy: The two organizations could create a closed cycle in which waste is collected, recycled and converted into environmentally friendly products, which is then reintroduced into the economy. 3. Scaling and reach The Ocean Cleanup has already gained international attention through its river and ocean projects and brings operational experience on a large scale. Evercraft could further increase the reach and effectiveness of these projects through technological innovations and strategic partnerships. Together they could: Clean up global rivers and marine regions faster: By combining barriers, river systems and recycling technologies, they could cover more areas worldwide and implement sustainable solutions faster. Strengthening international awareness: Through joint public campaigns, they could significantly increase global awareness of the urgency of the problem and the available solutions. 4. Long-term environmental protection The Ocean Cleanup aims to rid the ocean of plastic in the long term. Evercraft brings the knowledge to reduce CO2 emissions and promote a clean energy future. A combined approach could: Combining plastic waste and CO2 reduction: While The Ocean Cleanup focuses on waste removal, Evercraft could work in parallel to reduce the overall environmental impact by promoting renewable energy and developing carbon binding technologies. Conclusion: A partnership between The Ocean Cleanup and Evercraft Ecotechnologies would combine the best of both worlds – the ability to rid oceans of garbage and the technological expertise to sustainably recycle waste and drive environmentally friendly solutions. Together, they could not only clean up the Pacific carpet and other affected ocean areas, but also establish global innovations in the field of circular economy and environmental protection. #Sustainability #EnvironmentalProtection #GreenTechnology #SustainableLiving #EnvironmentallyFriendly #FutureTechnology #RenewableEnergy #ClimateProtection #EnvironmentalInnovation #PlasticFree #EnvironmentalPioneers #GreenEnergy #SustainableProduction #CircularEconomy #EmissionFree #ECET

This is absolutely incredible to see. For real time monitoring of plastic density position I think a geosynchronous satellite might be your best bet though perhaps prohibitively expensive.

Amazing work and what a journey this has been. It’s been thrilling to watch it unfold. Great job laying out what’s needed to finish the job. Will continue to chip in to keep it going.

THANK YOU 🙏🏻

This was kind of terrible. I want to solve the problem but so many questions were avoided. Where the hell does all the trash go to? What vessels are you using to tug the ropes and transport the trash? How much fuel will it require? Who/how are you manufacturing and distributing the mile plus long nets? Are there humans at sea or is autonomous? What vessels are launching observation drones? What drones are you using? Who is operating those? What software are you using to map the garbage? Your estimates seem off because you have to aggregate all of this and more.

I truly appreciate the efforts. And hope the leading plastic producing corporations feel the need to invest in your company, and others like it, as they are primarily why we are here. That includes those who make large scale fishing supplies, too.

Which is not great Britain btw
