Last year, the Mekong river experienced an unprecedented drought and its lowest water levels in 50+ years, affecting millions along the lower portion of the river. #China insisted it also experienced low water levels during this time, but new data says otherwise. 1/5
Taking social distancing to the next level. Throwback to our team 2000 kilometres from land collecting plastic in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Please stay safe.
This plastic is not any plastic; it has a story, it's traveled from one of the most far-reaching places on Earth. Now that it's on shore, you can be a part of the story, you can own it. Get first access at https://t.co/hCVDrzhTQJ
Interceptor 004 was planned for transfer to its location in the Rio Ozama yesterday, but, due to #COVID_19, this has been postponed. Although this matter is slowing down activity all over the world, we are continuing our work towards our mission. Stay safe and stay tuned.
From the Great Pacific Garbage Patch to Rotterdam, our first batch of plastic has landed in the Netherlands for sorting. Once this is completed, we will transfer it for recycling.
With 1.8 trillion plastic pieces floating in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, 46% of the mass is made up of fishing nets, not microplastics (which is a common misconception). You can learn more about our research on the Great Pacific Garbage Patch here: https://t.co/AMUhhSn9oa
Yesterday the Dominican Republic welcomed Interceptor 004. There are a few more steps to complete before operations can commence, but it’s almost ready to start cleaning the Rio Ozama.

#TBT to the deployment of our cleanup system in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch last year. With System 001/B, we confirmed we can catch plastic using the natural ocean forces. We are now developing System 002; the first full scale, fully operational cleanup system. Stay tuned.
The first plastic has arrived on shore. Next stop: September 2020, when we aim to launch the first product made out of plastic from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Learn more: https://t.co/hCVDrzhTQJ
The plastic in this 2018 video came from the river we’ll soon deploy Interceptor 004 in; the Rio Ozama. Proud to be working with the Dominican gov and our local partners in making this history
