The Ocean CleanX
The Ultimate Social and Technological approach to stop Ocean Pollution at the source
Why Protecting our Future?
Every year, 8.8 million tons of plastic waste make their way into the oceans resulting in 700 marine species are at risk of extinction.
Most of marine life who have swallowed contaminated plastic ends up in our meals.
Traditional coastal littering collection methods consist in static traps (floating bins) or humans with tools and boats.
Today, there is no automated solution to catch plastic in targeted locations or to efficiently detect when the bins are overflowing and pollution increases..
Community cost
Communities spend an average of $25,000/ton of plastic removed. Melbourne spends a million dollars/year to remove river littering (5 people full time). Globally, it costs 5 billion dollars (100,000 jobs, 15,000 boats) to remove coastal wastes.
What is the Solution?
The OceanCleanX is the most efficient way to identify Ocean Pollution. It supports automated collection methods to stop the pollution at the source.
What is the next S-T-E-P?
S – SOCIAL
If each Rotarian Tag 1 Pollution Picture, we get the largest pollution database in the world!
T – TECHNOLOGY
With over 1.2 Millions of Pollution Images, we train Computers to detect Pollution!
E – ENVIRONMENT
We deploy Smart Sensors along the Rivers & Automate Pollution identification!
P – PUBLIC
We communicate our Results to the Public & Implement Pollution Removal Initiatives!
