All about Ocean Cleanups
Ocean cleanups collect plastic and other rubbish from the sea using nets, booms and boats. Some systems use floating barriers that move with the currents to gather litter. Removing plastic helps protect sea animals that can be harmed by it.
Preventing plastic from reaching the sea is just as important as cleaning it up. Reducing single-use plastics, recycling properly and cleaning up beaches all help keep the oceans healthier.
