cleaning up tons of ocean plastic pollution

Boyan Slat
founder and CEO
The Ocean Cleanup
when Boyan was 16 he went SCUBA diving in Greece. He saw more plastic than fish and wondered...

Boyan founded The Ocean Cleanup in 2013 which has removed over 6 million kilograms of plastic from oceans and rivers using advanced cleanup technologies.
there's no better feeling than having and idea and seeing it become reality.
