Huge cleaning machine.
Huge cleaning machine.

A Dutch inventor helped create a huge device that removed nearly 9,000 kilos of plastic from the Pacific Ocean, the Ocean Cleanup organization aims to remove 90% of floating ocean plastic by 2040.

To this end they created a device called Jenny that collects plastic in a gigantic network system, the team launched the device on the large island of garbage in the North Pacific, managing to collect huge amounts of plastic.

The jenny device is a 100 meter long floating barrier of two funnel-shaped nets, boats tow it across the ocean as the current pushes the plastic into the nets, then the plastic is transported to shore where it is currently recycled. in sunglasses that can cost up to $ 200.

Actually, this is the key to financing this project, it is estimated that 10 genes could clean up to 50 percent of the great island of garbage in 5 years, however, there is still the challenge of cleaning the ocean floor since Jenny only collects plastics at surface level, while there could be up to 30 times more plastic on the ocean floor.

Can we find this in Nigeria it really okay if we could have one.most of our ocean are dirty
I love projects that actually help and their actions prove it. I wonder WHERE they are putting all the garbage they find and what recycling olans do they have and have implented already?
I read any given person with the will and recources (doesnt require much) can build their very own plastic recycle system to revert anything made from petroleum back into "crude" oil. As for energy costs a self sustaining system like solar panels or wind power, geothermal power etc. Natural energy to work the machines that are reversing the petroleum process.
Once its crude oil form, we can either store it, or use it again.
I refuse to believe that nothing cant be recycled. The problem here with that is crapitalism promotes consumerism.
The problem is the crap in it. The crap in all ism.
But thats just my upbringing.
