I love that the water wheel powers it.
Wonderful job folks!
Thank you very much
Bless You! Hope your good work inspires other young ppl to do things to make the world a better place instead of whining about the state of it. Love from PA.
SOooooooooo wonderful.Take your ideas to high school and college assemblies to ask the kids to start using their creativity to do similar things to help our planet now. Get in front of their faces to let them know that they can invent stuff now at their age, but that they have just not been asked to. You are such great examples. I have an adopted grandson who comes up with ideas all day, with no place to put them because we smart adults are not smart ENOUGH!
God Bless 👍👍👍
Seeker brought me here
hmm i wonder where boyan slat got inspiration for his ocean interceptor.
Seems like he should sue Boyan Slat for IP theft.

👍 👏 🙌 💝💖💗
Very nice initiative 👌👏
This sounds a great idea does it not effect fish and crabs etc
Fine every individual throwing trash. The fines will pay for the enforcers.
They should open source the design. I'm sure there are people who could make improvements and build them locally around the world.
Simply fantastic! But even better would be if most of the people change their bad behaviors.
ocean cleanup?
All this trash and organic can be refined into fuel by smoldering the trash in containment condensing the smoke into crude creosote oils that can be refined into fuel to further fund the cleaning project creating a funded new form of employment with profits…
now i dont have to worry about throwing my trash in the water anymore, this guy will clean it up, thanks bro
I went to Baltimore today, but the trash wheel was gone!
para mi eso es una gran idea pero pensar que en el mundo existen los recursos necesario como para poder implementar una flota de barcos con un sistema parecio al que se visualiza en el video y asi poder mitigar los impactos por el plastico en el mar… osea nose si son estupidos o simplemente quieren que el mundo se llene de plasticooo
INDIA BUY 500 OF THESE
Thank you, boys, this was a fantastic idea, and one that definitely works!!!!
This would be wonderful to have for every city on the water. They should have hundreds of them by the ocean beeches – big problems for the environment and fish. Where does the trash go when the container is full? Does a barge or boat come to empty it and haul it away?
This is a good innovation! I hope this continues.
God bless you for caring and doing something about the problem you saw.
Amazing
But the underlying point is, maybe we need to look for an alternative to plastic
sorry, I couldn't understand. does it collect the garbages which are in deep of the river?
boyan slat's horseshoe collector broke …maybe a water wheel is needed
behavior..yup
OMG I am going to meet him in my field trip
Save or planet
