My water company says it can’t afford to stop polluting our rivers - but I just found out how much £££ they took from my bill and gave straight to their shareholders…It’s a total con.
Check how much they took from you: https://t.co/tg3sonqRgR

One of the latest offloads of Interceptor 002 in River Klang, Malaysia brings its total catch to 2,168,000 kg / 4,780,440 lbs (for reference - equivalent to the weight of almost 12 jumbo jets).

Great work !!!

LATEST: The first flush of 2024’s rainy season and Interceptor 006 is already preventing tons of trash from flowing into the Caribbean Sea from the Rio Las Vacas, Guatemala.

Will this be our largest river catch ever? Keep an eye on our channels while our crew works round the clock with two excavators to remove all the waste! 👀

[Julie Johnston @dizzymissj]

Amazing work Well done!!!!

If you were to take all of the trash @TheOceanCleanup’s Interceptors stopped from flowing into the ocean in 2023, put it into dump trucks, and lined them up bumper-to-bumper, the convoy would stretch for almost 20 kilometers.

While preparing to deploy in Indonesia's Cisadane River, Interceptor 020 experienced some issues due to a storm event. Our team will temporarily move the Interceptor to a safe location and work to evaluate the situation.

Cleaning up the ocean garbage patches is essential to end plastic pollution, but it's vital to do so in an environmentally sound way. This is how we approach it: https://t.co/dBVpntHj8I.

[Julie Johnston @dizzymissj]

Yes why?

[Boyan Slat @BoyanSlat]

At The Ocean Cleanup, we make it explicit that our goal is to put ourselves out of business.
Once the cleanup is completed and all Interceptors are deployed and are operated sustainably, our job will be done.
Why don't more nonprofits make this their goal?

Urgent - the Palantir NHS data deal is a huge threat to the NHS, but it still hasn’t been signed, and there are reports that the government is now wavering. This is our chance to get it dropped - sign the petition to the health minister now: https://t.co/iIdcuB05q2

Interceptor 006 has successfully prevented around 3,000,000 kg of trash (and counting) from reaching the Caribbean Sea in the last five months.

As the end of the flooding season in Guatemala approaches, we continue to capture and extract trash with every rainstorm.

INTERCEPTOR 006: BIGGEST CATCH SO FAR

On Monday, July 31, we hit a new record in the Rio Las Vacas, Guatemala: 85 truckloads of trash removed and prevented from reaching the Caribbean Sea - all in a single day.

[Julie Johnston @dizzymissj]

This hero doesn't get enough press !!!

[The Ocean Cleanup @TheOceanCleanup]

Another milestone in Guatemala: we have now removed over one thousand truckloads of trash from the Rio Las Vacas. 🇬🇹

This is our toughest river challenge so far, but we’re continually working to improve Interceptor 006 and keep tons of plastic from entering the Caribbean Sea.

@RoyalMailHelp Not guaranteed It's rubbish

[Julie Johnston @dizzymissj]

@royalmailhelp
What a disgrace the mail is increased prices and still takes 6 days for post with first class stamp to arrive Quicker to hand deliver

[Julie Johnston @dizzymissj]

@RoyalMailHelp Well that's not really the point is it? Over £1 to post a birthday card for it to take 6 days to arrive
