The Ocean Cleanup

[The Ocean Cleanup] provides scalable technologies to rid the oceans of plastic, including river interception systems and ocean cleanup systems, with a target to remove 90% of floating ocean plastic by 2040.

City governments and city programs (e.g., the 30 cities program), international organizations, foundations/nonprofits, corporations and donors supporting environmental cleanup.

Dual, scalable approach combining river plastic interception to reduce inflow with direct ocean cleanup of existing floating plastics, backed by a decade of research and global deployment.

30 cities program to cut ocean plastic pollution from rivers by one third by 2030; target to remove 90% of floating ocean plastic by 2040.
