Boyan and his “plastic vacuum” Ocean Cleanup machine
Boyan Slat & the Amazing Ocean Cleanup
Have you heard of Boyan Slat? He’s a young inventor with a big dream: to clean up our oceans! When Boyan was just 16, he noticed a lot of plastic waste in the sea and decided to do something about it. He invented a cool machine called “The Ocean Cleanup.” This machine acts like a giant vacuum cleaner, floating in the ocean and collecting plastic waste.
It all adds up
Why is this important? Our oceans are home to many incredible creatures like dolphins, turtles, and colorful fish. Plastic pollution can harm these animals and their homes. By removing plastic, Boyan’s invention helps make the ocean a safer, cleaner place for all sea life. Thanks to Boyan and his team, tons of plastic are being taken out of the ocean. This helps keep our waters clear and beautiful.
What you can do
And guess what? You can help too! Reduce plastic use, recycle, and spread the word about keeping our oceans clean.
Remember, every little action counts in making our world a better place. Keep dreaming big, just like Boyan Slat!
Happy Ocean-saving, my friends! 🐠🌟
