Our expedition is going amazing! Above is some of our crew with the heaping pile of trash. We will be converting this trash into fuel this up coming summer with our new mobile unit. We have finished cleaning Catala Island, managing to complete two field surveys for NOAA and remove a lot of garbage. Thanks…
We successfully identified several plastic pollution hotspots, recorded debris data and removed plastic pollution off of a few hotspots just outside of Yelapa, Mexico with a crew of 12 people. In only 120m we collected 162 kilos of plastic pollution!
