Innovative solutions for Ocean Cleanup
We make the world's oceans cleaner with autonomous removal of marine plastic waste.
Problem description
Marine polution is the fastest growing environmental problem in the world.
UN has described marine pollution as the fastest growing environmental problem in the world. Between 4,8 and 12,7 million tons of plastic waste currently enters the ocean every year, the equivalent of a truckload every minute throughout the year. When the plastic waste reaches the seas, up to 94 percent (WWF, 2018) will sink to the seabed and over a longer period of time break down to micro-plastic particles. It is therefore essential to take measures to prevent the inflow of plastic waste before it reaches the open oceans. Clean Sea Solutions designs solutions for this purpose specifically.
