Ocean Cleanup’s 100th Extraction in Under 60 Seconds
Ocean Cleanup recently celebrated a major milestone as they successfully completed their 100th extraction in under 60 seconds. The video showcases the process of safely transferring the collected plastics from the ocean to the deck of the cleanup vessel. The team makes connections on deck to ensure the safety of everyone on board before proceeding with the extraction.
Once the plastics are securely on deck, the team prepares to dispose of them, ensuring that the harmful materials from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch will never pollute the oceans again. The excitement is tangible as the team lifts the plastics, bringing them closer to completion of their mission.
The video captures the intense moment as the plastics are dumped, with the entire deck vibrating under the weight of the collected materials. With a sense of satisfaction, the team reflects on the impact of their work and the positive change they are making for the environment.
As the extraction number 100 is successfully completed, the team celebrates the removal of 5,824 kilos of plastics from the ocean, marking a significant achievement in their ongoing efforts to clean up the world’s waterways.
