Crew Encounters Headwinds in Transition to System 03

At 1758m in length, System 002/C is the biggest system we’ve had in the water so far - but if we want to tackle the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, we need to go even bigger. And although we’re not quite there yet, we are making solid progress as seen in our latest progress report from offshore. Make sure to subscribe to our KZbin channel to stay updated: bit.ly/371k8sN

I can't put in to words how much I love you guys and the work that you do.

[@qearetha]

You have spoken for me😍

[@magnumxlpi]

A very expensive way to collect barely anything? I'm sorry but they don't give a fuck about fixing anything. The CEO is another tech weirdo with a dumb idea that people are apparently too blind to see

[@shirolee]

I agree.

[@jurrethom]

Your organization deserves a Nobel prize.

[@mollyragdollfan1917]

They are long overdue for one!

[@susankoch2779]

I continue to be appalled at the garbage that is discarded into the ocean. I wish the fishing industry were held accountable for the damage they are doing. But I am amazed and encouraged by the work you do. Your super human level of perseverance benefits the entire planet!

[@greggkeyes636]

the waste they are collecting goes even beyond the fishing boats, that's trash dumped by commercial ships, trash washed out by rivers where communities dump their waste etc. Is it true commercial shipping and Navies of nation s can still dump waste at sea?

[@jaymacpherson8167]

Thank you Ocean Cleanup for this work. I would like to know the estimated mass of floating plastics along with the average mass captured per haul, and the time frame to move the plastic onshore, then return on-site. Obviously using that information to estimate a cleanup rate is complicated by not knowing the source loading rate, yet it would provide some sense of the effectiveness of this valiant effort.

[@josephyarbrough9316]

​@jaymacpherson8167 look on their website

[@VintageJunker]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THANK YOU!!!

[@stevej7139]

Going bigger is great as long as the components can handle the increase in stress, as someone that worked as a manufacturing engineer in the aerospace field I know all too well that bigger isn't always better because everything has it's limitations. Go too big and you lose the ability to reel it all in and dump it or the added stress causes a component to fail or even a chain reaction that takes everything out, smaller may seem like it takes longer but efficiency is the real key component to any system working well. I wish you guys well, what you are doing is important to the long term survival of our species !

[@adriane7841]

That was my biggest concern when they said the size. Hope it works as intended

[@franklinvanreem]

If you think about what type of content goes viral compared to the amount of views this video has, as a planet we need to get our priorities straight! Fabulous initiative and undertaking! Love you guys!

[@Where_we_go]

I was just thinking the same thing.

[@saphiregirl90]

Yes take the time to do it right! You guys got this!!

[@a_d_a_m]

you guys are gonna nail this, you’ve overcome much bigger setbacks already! thanks for sharing the process and being transparent

[@FrancoisTCS]

1 step at a time, full steam ahead. All the best for the next trials.

[@rosiew2175]

Congratulations on your persistence and technical brilliance..

[@margedeogee8525]

I would like to say thank you to every single person who has worked so hard on this project and more to clean up plastic pollution, THANK YOU! Your dedication to the job at hand is sincerely appreciated by millions of people on this planet and I am one of them. I wish you all much success and happiness as you work to bring your ideas to fruition.

[@bridgetandrews8787]

This is the charity I donate to, you are doing such amazing work

[@JBaxter-pi8oj]

I can't thank you enough for the work you are doing. Incredible!

[@x.x.2644]

u can donate

[@daveditcher4059]

I have been following your progress for several years. At times it must seem impossible, but your measured approach is paying dividends. Thank you for doing what you do.

[@natasjadirken5633]

You guys are nothing less than awesome! Step by step improving and growing bigger! Just WOW! We love you and so do all the aquatic animals💙

[@RealSalica]

Thank you so much for your work !!!! You seem to be part of the few that ARE DOING something instead of most who only COMPLAIN and DO NOTHING concrete to make this world a better place !!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@seeksustainablejapan]

This is so satisfying to watch - not only seeing the amount of plastic and nets you are able to successfully extract, but also seeing how great the collaboration between different members of the crew is in the Ocean CleanUp team! Thank you all for all the great work you are doing and thank you also for posting these awesome updates :)

[@nicklang7670]

Thank you so much, every time I see the haul of garbage you pull out of our amazing ocean I feel as though the work you do is invaluable to all of us and must continue to be supported.

[@vvlist]

Thank you for all that you do. There are people all over the world cheering you on. Take care!

[@michelelee5339]

The amount of netting & paraphernalia from the fishing industry being swept up in your system is disturbing. At some point, the fishing industry needs to be held accountable for this mess. Thank you for all you do, Ocean Cleanup 🌟💖🌟

[@TheAccidentalViking]

As we clean our coastal areas and islands here in Norway, it is the same. Most of the debris is from the fishing industry.

[@krissalouvae7513]

Thank you more than words can say for your hard work and dedication to cleaning up the not-Great Pacific Garbage Patch and other waterways. You are an inspiration! What you are doing is so much more important than other human endeavors that get more attention (space exploration, for one). Thank you so much for what you are doing!!! 💙🐋🌎🐟🐙🐬⭐👍💪💙

[@SophiaAphrodite]

Already such a bold project. If there were not "headwinds" somewhere along the way. It would not be a goal worth reaching. I always click every video and short and comment when I can to help the algorithm!

[@bucfan2k2]

I grew up on the space Coast in Florida, going to Cocoa Beach all the time. The ocean is very special to me and I really appreciate what you guys do. Keep up the great work!!!

[@jonathanking456]

Just had fish and chips for lunch at The Pig N Whistle in Cocoa Beach.😊❤😬🤙👍 ☮️ I love The Ocean Cleanup Project!

[@lizbilson6602]

I just can't believe what we as humans have done ..., and keep doing, to our oceans. The buck starts with us and it has to stop with us. All I can say is 'thank god' there are people around the world that 'do' care about the world in which we live ..., and the creatures we share it with. One person will never be able to change things single handedly but with Organisations like The Ocean Cleanup and their team of supporters ..., anything is possible. The Power of People is ever almightly. 😊

[@roscoemc3]

I struggle to understand why people think pollution is ok, thank you for your dedication to clean this up …you people are the best

[@Gretchen-vh9xt]

I love how honest you are about the negative things that happen. Really makes me believe in you that much more. Thank you.

[@mortalclown3812]

Comments for the algorithm don't seem like enough... Earth needs triage and that's what you're doing. Hoping humanity wakes up before life is untenable for every being. We're in it together, dear ones.

[@nfboogaard]

Thanks for all you do, I do a small part by picking up plastic in my neighborhood. Every time I return home with a full bag, just like you.

[@janka1981]

So satisfying to see, what you do. All the best to you ❤

[@leannekerber3045]

Thanks for all you do!!!!!

[@kathyadams3924]

Don't give up. You're on then right track. It's working and You are helping. Can't tell you how much you are appreciated.

[@TantrikSolutions]

Love and best wishes to all of you. You guys are really giving us hope and inspiration to think put of the box.

[@RetiredCasper2023]

Great job! Nothing will stop you. You have a large group of like-minded intelligent people who are constantly thinking outside of the box! Well done! Be Safe!

[@susansontags]

Amazing stuff. Keep up the good work!!!

[@user-nr1rh4wj5y]

Je suis admirative de votre travail. continuez vous nous faites rêver.

[@dmwm771]

Amazing work!

[@stopscammingman]

Admirable transparency and courage in the face of challenges, which has served them well.

[@joeyd7728]

You guys are hero’s. Absolutely incredible, God bless you all🙏🏼🇺🇸❤️

[@wrightharris9367]

God bless you for doing this difficult task AND careing enough about our ocean to do it♥️🐋

[@nickstew_art]

Should be funded by the UN so as there are no limits on what you can imagine and make work.

[@valeriacocchi4875]

Mr. Rocca seems what I define a credible person. 👍🏻

[@brandielasalle8307]

Thank you for all the hard work and dedication ❤

[@user-eb8vu8hv2j]

Keep going in your great job and efforts. At the same time, it will be great to pass the message to all, especially to teach the children at school how to behave with the garbage/plastic these days.

[@chuckgrigsby9664]

I presume you do sampling in the region behind where you have just traversed. What can you tell us about that? I would imagine that behind the area you have just cleaned, there is diffusion of the plastic trash from the sides of the traverse back into the area you have just cleaned. How long does the traverse stay cleaned? How cleaned is it? How much microplastic is left behind a traverse? Thanks for the work you are doing! It is truly amazing.

[@wesleydolan5231]

I would love to see a complete extraction video sometime. From beginning to end, time-lapsed or fast forwarded or something, but from when the decision is made to begin extraction to the point of releasing it back out into the ocean.

[@ximenalara5613]

I just received my newsletter and opened it, to see this video. I wish there was more news like yours!! Thanks! You guys are truly amazing, so thankful, for each of you and the work you are doing!!

[@coasterb1]

@ximenalara5613 what newsletter?

[@tessjones5987]

Saving the drowning sea life. Praise your Love.

[@matthewwilliams5253]

All we hear is climate change this and climate change that, when the real people actually making a difference get no real media attention... well done guys, love your work, its amazing, keep it up. Real, actual, environmentalists making a difference not just talking about it. Thank you.

[@MD-in6nd]

Great job❤

[@michaelallen2358]

You are precious,I want you to know what you do is so important, you will always have my support.

[@TakingtheTRASHOUTwithAaron]

🙏 This team is so amazing. Thank you!!

[@scottudave4499]

I was listening to talk radio and they stated you had cleaned up a garbage island the size of France, I was hoping to see a video or news of, but this is your newest video and no word of it. I’m so proud of this accomplishment for you, but I don’t dare post it on social media with out receipts. Great job guys.

[@lesliewagner6744]

thank you for all your incredible efforts!!!

[@Windy.Sailing]

Thankyou for all the work you do!❤

[@bertdejesus3578]

Thank you very much. I can only pray that the World Oligarchs can fund you more. The ocean is very large and this small catch is very very big for the world. I pray forthe success of your project

[@Where_we_go]

These videos need more interaction. So, here you go. Keep it up!

[@TheOak12345]

There were a lot of larger containers in that capture which means ships are not securing their gear or they are dumping what appears to be decent stuff - to buy more? Ocean Cleanup is a fantastic company.

[@4everskiing]

Awesome!

[@FerTyla71]

Fantastic work! Keep pushing, you will succeed for sure.

[@alinesoules542]

I love what you do. I just hope we can find the will and a way to stop adding more plastic to the ocean.

[@CaptEoNinja83]

You are all AWESOME!

[@mikemeadowcroft1944]

Great stuff guys - keep going you have our full support.

[@karlatiller-barclay1965]

I love my glasses and love this company.

[@prahas777]

Bravo you guys and gals!!! Thank you so much for putting in the hard work!!

[@Skupik1]

Looks like someone deserves a Nobel Prize!

[@01bigtrev]

It’s all fishing equipment. Absolutely crazy

[@pwn2own23]

Can't wait to see 10 system 3 operating 🤩

[@junkname9983]

they need a thousand system 3 operating around the clock to clean up the ocean. They're not even making a dent so far.

[@user-si2vr7oo6q]

Please please make an educational video & get it into mainstream schools ..obviously for awareness but also please guide young humans towards finding employment in the field of ocean conservation. Thank you with all my heart & soul🙏🏽🌏

[@pedrocarvalho6492]

Keep up the good work. Bless you all

[@jrwhite7916]

When they emptied that net, my heart sank. My immediate (vocal) thought, "that came outta the ocean???!!!.. wtf??!!"... yep. That thought was spoken out loud... ughhh.

[@albatro2676]

Felicitaciones por el avance hacia este nuevo Sistema 003 !!

[@trade_design23]

Great job ! I did not see a single straw.

[@Freemouse159]

Keep doing what your doing team!!

[@bobsmith9938]

Amazing start to clean out oceans 🙌

[@stopscammingman]

Great going to anyone who's donated to this, whether it was a dollar or a hundred.

[@beverleybarnes5656]

Thank you for this important work.

[@sourcecreator2222]

Amazing work

[@tubehound8]

The longer the system gets the more powerful tow boats are needed. Stay safe

[@kiha6702]

I would like to see a video about the whole sorting process

[@MisterHolaMan]

To help scale up, I think You should incorporate pyrolysis and melt some of your plastic back into diesel to help fuel the boat fleet. If I were part of your organization I would have a small submarine fueled by the plastic to stay out longer with a small team, help gather more data and find more plastic

[@9mil848]

Action,result,lovely!!!

[@randyc754]

Great Job!

[@ka8byrdie]

Thank you .

[@billlumberg5746]

Awesome work team...but unfortunately think it might be too late we're doomed!

[@td4190]

A good idea for your weight problem is to make segments of net grouping. So you can keep going and drag in. As one comes up half the size of what you just pulled up. It gets opened and the drag keeps pulling in the rest. Say like enough room between each load for say 20 min to 30.

[@Gertjan_A]

Great job guys 👌👌💙💙well done 👍👍

[@franciscomanuelrodriguezro829]

Me encanta lo que hacéis muchas muchas gracias ❤❤❤❤

[@Corum001]

Fantastic!! 😀👍

[@jamesfox2857]

The larger the Net = The Larger the Ship Needed = that is just How it is In the Ocean .

[@NadjaLind]

💙 thank you so much

[@leooo6577]

Amazing video, amazing work!

[@johnburns1902]

We need many thousands of clean up ships in each ocean.
