Needless to say, oceans are in dire need of getting cleaned. Humanity will face fatal consequences if the oceans, seas, rivers, and other water bodies remain full of trash.

The duo, speaking about the severity of the situation, explained, “Our ocean, rivers, and beaches are full of plastic trash. It’s estimated that there are 200M tons of plastic already circulating in marine environments, with an estimated 11M tons entering the ocean EVERY YEAR. Pollution from bottles, bags, straws, and abandoned fishing gear is a health crisis for our entire planet. So we’re going to remove the equivalent of 85 football fields covered a foot deep in trash.”
