Earth Heal – News For An Earth In Transition
26 April 2013
- 19-year-old Boyan Slat has unveiled plans to create an Ocean Cleanup Array that could remove 7,250,000 tons of plastic waste from the world’s oceans.
The device consists of an anchored network of floating booms and processing platforms that could be dispatched to garbage patches around the world.
It is estimated that the clean-up process would take about five years, and it could greatly increase awareness about the world’s plastic garbage patches.
