When I was in Jamaica there were beaches knee deep in plastic bottles. Literally. A simple deposit system would clean these areas overnight. Literally.
You would think so but I live in Portland, Oregon where the bottle deposit is 10 cents PER container and they STILL get left in the streets. Now we just have a HUGE homeless population that literally LIVES on the money redeemed from bottles they collect and then they wait in lines for hours at the bottle returns. People with 40hr week jobs don't have the time or energy to stand in line for 45 mins to collect $14.40 (because 144 is the max containers you can redeem at one time-- why this number?! who fucking knows...) so they just let them sit out with the trash. Trust me, I've had 5 HUGE garbage bags of cans in my garage for WEEKS now because of Covid they only have every other machine open at the centers "6 ft distancing bullshit" and every single time I've went to the grocery store and took a peek at the line it was at least 8-10 people deep with trolleys FULLLLLLLL of cans-- hours of work putting them in the machine one at a time.

@@kennethgilbertdds7249 The beaches I saw were near Port Royal on the inside facing Kingston, the bay is essentially a closed loop.

To actually solve the problem of all that waste/garbage going into rivers, there needs to be a cultural change in the local population. That machine won't solve the actual problem, it just enables and encourages the local population to keep on doing what they've been doing; being careless.
Well that cultural change is doing soooooooooo much, people will throw things, because of our population. This is a good industry, once companies can make money out of this thing will really kick into highgear
All of the trash starts on land and 99.9% of the effort should be collecting it before it reaches waterways. There needs to be a truly massive effort to clean up the land and, with any luck, when locals see a clean environment they want to keep it like that.
Calling those people careless is retarded. Nobody likes throwing thousands of tons of trash into the ocean. As someone from Dominican Republic I can confirm people there don't have access to sanitation
Manufacturers like Coca-cola should also be made responsible for the packaging they sell their products in. I'm sure most won't mind paying an extra 20% for a drink if it means the manufacturer will build and operate a dedicated recycling facility in each country it operates in. As it is right now, the responsibility is pushed 100% to the consumer.
@@ธนาเดชศุภนัทนพร What about the towns, cities and states that have banned and closed their garbage dumps? What happens their plastics? Recycling Centers have closed as well.

if the locals get paid for emptying the skips ,, they probably just take them upstream and throw the rubbish back in , its probably the same 100 tons each day . Fix the origins of the rubbish would be a great thing to do as well, that wont be as easy as picking up rubbish though.

Brilliant Machines, trouble is when a material idea comes into practice by inventors, they should also think about how to dispose of it once it's usefulness is over. They forget about the importance of this.
In Sweden, we have received an extra tax on plastic bags. Politicians believe that Swedish plastic bags end up in watercourses. A plastic bag costs SEK 10 each

So what are they going to do with the rubbish collected? We know many developed countries like the US, UK, Canada, and Australia have been sending container loads of waste plastics to developing countries.
The only problem with this is that it only gets the floating trash. Seems it is only doing a 1/2 of the job. Here in Florida we have a similar machine that cleans up the hydrilla weeds from the lakes and rivers but then again to fails to get to the bottom. It would seem to me that this is a hell of a lot more important that going to the moon or mars. Maybe we need to go back to the 50's and 60's where you had to pay a deposit for bottles of coke or what ever you drank. But when you bring them back to the store or a recycling place you got it back. I remember walking along the roads looking for bottles to cash in for the deposit money. Some days we could make 25-30 dollars just doing that. I know not a lot today but in 1955-60 it paid for our school shoes and our drinks. Ahhhh the good old days..
i think that countries should build permanent garbage traps on their rivers. It's good to have mobile ones, but that makes you dependent on the manufacturer. It's easier to buy only the necessary hw and sw /licenses to get it done
I imagine that varies wildly depending on cost of local labor. I believe Indonesia was doing something like that to clean up their coasts, tho that could have been a recycling company as well. That said, 700k for something that can move that kind of volume rain or shine without fear of currents would certainly be needed as well to fully clean a river system. of course a trash collection system that didn't amount to 'throw it in the river' would help immensely too
That's so typical for our society. Instead if preventing plastic and garbage from getting into the rivers and ocean, we spend a fortune to develope technology for picking a little bit of it out there again.
@@freegedankenzurbaukunst5613 The Rhine was cleaned by preventing the waste and poison from getting in there, not by filtering it out again. Plastic and other stuff the interceptor could filter out have not been the waste and poison the Rhine was polluted with. I think its wrong to say cleaning the Rhine has cost 45 bn euros, because this assumes everyone has the right to dispose his poison and garbage into our rivers for free. But that's another good example how shallow our concepts of environment protection are. There is so many other, even much more toxic stuff we pullute our rivers and the oceans with. There are hundred thousands of mainly poor people who get sick and die from polluted water. But what we care about most is the plastic, because we can see it and it ruins the beutiful holiday paradices of the rich people.
@@jeanyluisa8483 Were the Rhine , the Rhone really cleaned up ??? Twenty-one sediment samples were taken from five dated sediment cores collected along the Rhône River from 2008 to 2011.

@@jeanyluisa8483 cleaning the Rhine has cost 45 bn euros . Who's going to pay since there were no legislation ? Capitalists didn't care about polluting rivers . Same thing happening in 3/4 World countries . This so called Interceptor , cool concept but it's just a toy
@@freegedankenzurbaukunst5613 Whatever drugs you are taking, I want some of those too ;-) It's been you'e own statement that the Rhine was cleaned, not mine. I opposed it and wrote the Rhine never was cleaned, we only reduced polluting it. So why do you now tell me that the poison is still in there?
It's about harm reduction. Yes the reasons for pollution need to be dealt with but so does the existing pollution. And if the source isn't dealt with then all the more reason to do this. And yes the root of the problem is the people but that's where leadership comes in and this guy is leading
ok, it collects the trash, but that still has to be put and be processed somewhere properly, otherwise it will just end up in these rivers again anyway.
Just from my thought: long ago people may think that plastics are easy to recycle and can keep on reuse on and on and won't be any problem for the future. I am wondering what would the future looks like with lithium battery. For now people may have the same thinking with lithium battery same as plastic old days......?
Long sight..but you got a real point..what to do when the mtrl expires, a system need to made for that.. But yes..world seems awake for this because we are finding hydrogen fuel cell tech and other type of batteries too..
$70 000? For $5000 they could use a floating conveyor belt with the same floating funnel for gathering the plastic, and get the garbage on a piece of land near the river, from where garbage trucks can pick it up and then have it filtered and recycled, or even simply dumped in garbage dumps. Maybe even less than that, if they use a static structure installed in the river, which to work together with the floating funnel they use for gathering floating garbage.
Fabulous system, certain to eliminate a great deal of plastic but not huge fishing nets n other contraband that kill marine life and compromise ocean health. Avoid minimizing net pollution in ocean.
In fact, the VOIMA CORPORATION has portable, modular and floating waste-to-energy power plants that could be installed in polluted rivers and on polluted seashores around the world . The bargeVOIMA power-plant product could be assembled fast and start- off the nearby community on the circular sustainable economy path.
Every person has it in their hands to stop buying plastic. I'm not buying shampoo, liquid soap, etc. anymore. I make my own cleaning products. The milk & heavy cream I buy is in recycle glass bottles. That way I have reduced the plastic I buy already by 75%. If every person would do just a fraction of that, it would make quite the impact.
What happens to the waste that it picks up? Unless there is a recycling program in place, what good does this do. Also, does this only handle floating waste?
Unless we the people on earth won’t take care of clearing the debris and maintain clean soil and water none will survive on the wonderful Earth in future.
water vegetation is the main destroyer for any filtration devices. my hometown start cleaning up nearby rivers 20 years ago due to mud and vegetation build up overtime. i saw boat loads of vegetation been shipped away by man power. and thats like daily shift every day to maintain the river free of them.
If the country DOESN'T Stop the people from polluting the river and their country it will continue to remain a "danger to humanity"... Fix the root of the problem not just the surface.
Great idea but you need to fix these 3rd world countries to fix pollution, as long as you have poor people and lacked laws for companies to operate in these countries, the world won't change
U dont nessasary need the 3rd World to fix the problem, if we but our first World comapnies under force u can solve most of the problems indirectly. If we force first world companies to control their supply chains. (which is easy if the governments would make it a law, but lobbies..) And dont forget that most plastic waste is from fishing nets, here the governments could also make a law that the companies have to use degradable fishingnets. 90% of the problem is easy to fix, but companies would lose money so the governments dont akt. But yeah its easier to say they (3rd world) must fix X and not hey our companies would lose a bit of money but we can fix the problem.
The amount of radioactive poison dumped into our oceans is pretty significant and a surprisingly recent phenomenon. Hope we stop doing that, and clean up what we've thrown in there
Very informative video! Some constructive feedback: It was very obvious you were reading a script with different tone changes so try to practice reading it in front of a mirror, as if you were in a conversation.
Excellent work Governments are to blame for not legislating to make it illegal for industry to still manufacture plastic products, plastic bags should have been banned 30 years ago. Biodegradable bags made from plants do exist
This is nice, but will not help. Education is the only way. Educate people to break their habits to throw plastics where ever they like and stop using too much plastics. Very hard to achieve, I admit.
The cost is reasonable if the government of each country invest in these great machines. They spend way more in stupid unnecessary things. This equipment should be mandatory in all nations with waterways and coasts.
I think what all these private citizens and organizations cleaning up is wonderful. But, to make real change governments will need to change the waste management practices. They will also need to hold manufacturers accountable for the production of materials that aren't recyclable. There's so much innovation out there packaging has to be change to a different material. Chemical waste and run off would have to treated. And severe penalties would have to be levied to polluters. But, I'm just glad more people are getting involved. If everyone tries to keep their areas clean it will make a difference.
the people and the governments must get involved in the cleanup of the country or else it is not going to work..look at Singapore..my country... it is a clean green paradise environmentally. Even the children and students and businesses must get involved..
What some countrys need is a renovation system that works! Otherwise this cleaning story is a never ending story!

That said, 700k for something that can move that kind of volume rain or shine without fear of currents would certainly be needed as well to fully clean a river system. of course a trash collection system that didn't amount to 'throw it in the river' would help immensely too
Unless people in those countries change their attitudes towards looking after their own environment, these boats will need to be a permanent feature.
That's so typical for our society. Instead if preventing plastic and garbage from getting into the rivers and ocean, we spend a fortune to develope technology for picking a little bit of it out there again.
Real cost of cleaning rivers .It took 30 years, 45 bn euros to clean more or less the Rhine . The Interceptor is just a toy
@@freegedankenzurbaukunst5613 The Rhine was cleaned by preventing the waste and poison from getting in there, not by filtering it out again. Plastic and other stuff the interceptor could filter out have not been the waste and poison the Rhine was polluted with.
I think its wrong to say cleaning the Rhine has cost 45 bn euros, because this assumes everyone has the right to dispose his poison and garbage into our rivers for free.
But that's another good example how shallow our concepts of environment protection are. There is so many other, even much more toxic stuff we pullute our rivers and the oceans with. There are hundred thousands of mainly poor people who get sick and die from polluted water. But what we care about most is the plastic, because we can see it and it ruins the beutiful holiday paradices of the rich people.
@@jeanyluisa8483 Were the Rhine , the Rhone really cleaned up ??? Twenty-one sediment samples were taken from five dated sediment cores collected along the Rhône River from 2008 to 2011. A total of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs), 7 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 8 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), 3 polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), 3 hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCD) and 31 organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) ; Some part of the Rhone are so polluted , they even dare to clean them without release sedimented pollution
@@jeanyluisa8483 cleaning the Rhine has cost 45 bn euros . Who's going to pay since there were no legislation ? Capitalists didn't care about polluting rivers . Same thing happening in 3/4 World countries . This so called Interceptor , cool concept but it's just a toy
@@freegedankenzurbaukunst5613 Whatever drugs you are taking, I want some of those too ;-)
It's been you'e own statement that the Rhine was cleaned, not mine. I opposed it and wrote the Rhine never was cleaned, we only reduced polluting it. So why do you now tell me that the poison is still in there?
90% of the footage used for this video is not actually from the Dominican Republic
they need to fix the roots of the problem tho. or else the people there will just chuck even more into the rivers
It's about harm reduction. Yes the reasons for pollution need to be dealt with but so does the existing pollution. And if the source isn't dealt with then all the more reason to do this. And yes the root of the problem is the people but that's where leadership comes in and this guy is leading
ok, it collects the trash, but that still has to be put and be processed somewhere properly, otherwise it will just end up in these rivers again anyway.
Landfills that are built correctly will not erode into the ocean
Super mind blowing and please using all oceans

Compliments. A Lovely Invention.
Lets get global, and why would any1 dislike this?

** Save the River, Save the Ocean**
The best way is to make every single person responsible.
The governments should pay poor people to clean up the trash, thus helping them out of poverty and cleaning the environment too!
Drainage catcher would greatly reduce debris from water drains/drainage.
Ahhh cleaning up the rivers of the world, what a great idea.

Great 👍
I hope Philippines have this. Recycling is amazing.
Just from my thought: long ago people may think that plastics are easy to recycle and can keep on reuse on and on and won't be any problem for the future. I am wondering what would the future looks like with lithium battery. For now people may have the same thinking with lithium battery same as plastic old days......?
Long sight..but you got a real point..what to do when the mtrl expires, a system need to made for that..
But yes..world seems awake for this because we are finding hydrogen fuel cell tech and other type of batteries too..
At the first school year you learn not to trow trash in the nature... Atleast in the white west.
This is good news for the fish and humans who are fighting over fishing.
Harsh life altering punishment should be later on people, governments, and communities who litter waterways.
Hopeful this would be used in other regions that need it.
$70 000? For $5000 they could use a floating conveyor belt with the same floating funnel for gathering the plastic, and get the garbage on a piece of land near the river, from where garbage trucks can pick it up and then have it filtered and recycled, or even simply dumped in garbage dumps. Maybe even less than that, if they use a static structure installed in the river, which to work together with the floating funnel they use for gathering floating garbage.
Excellent performance 👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Government of all nations must support for interceptors to clean up
Seas,oceans,rivers
Let future generation survive🌿
They need to teach their citizens not to shit in rivers ffs. It is a common sense
сдрассьти... чтобы стал ощутимым эффект, таких перехватчиков, нужно, примерно... ...1000000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow👍👏🤝
Good job
Fabulous system, certain to eliminate a great deal of plastic but not huge fishing nets n other contraband that kill marine life and compromise ocean health. Avoid minimizing net pollution in ocean.
Something similar to This is a great one for open ocean to clean dirty pockets.
That's from the same guy.
The Ocean Cleanup device.
They even said it in this video.
In fact, the VOIMA CORPORATION has portable, modular and floating waste-to-energy power plants that could be installed in polluted rivers and on polluted seashores around the world . The bargeVOIMA power-plant product could be assembled fast and start- off the nearby community on the circular sustainable economy path.
How it works starts at 7:22
To clean the world,firstly it has to be started from our own surroundings...
Every person has it in their hands to stop buying plastic.
I'm not buying shampoo, liquid soap, etc. anymore. I make my own cleaning products. The milk & heavy cream I buy is in recycle glass bottles.
That way I have reduced the plastic I buy already by 75%.
If every person would do just a fraction of that, it would make quite the impact.
What happens to the waste that it picks up? Unless there is a recycling program in place, what good does this do. Also, does this only handle floating waste?
Time to 1. Ban single-use plastic EVERYWHERE 2. Stop using oil as fuel in our cars!
India has been using these Trash skimmers from 2016, it has given ground results here as well
Unless we the people on earth won’t take care of clearing the debris and maintain clean soil and water none will survive on the wonderful Earth in future.
They should include to educate the people living around the river, educate, and punished those who ignores the law.
water vegetation is the main destroyer for any filtration devices. my hometown start cleaning up nearby rivers 20 years ago due to mud and vegetation build up overtime. i saw boat loads of vegetation been shipped away by man power. and thats like daily shift every day to maintain the river free of them.
If the country DOESN'T Stop the people from polluting the river and their country it will continue to remain a "danger to humanity"...
Fix the root of the problem not just the surface.
Great Work , but plastic particles on various levels in that case how to do resolve this issue.
Great idea but you need to fix these 3rd world countries to fix pollution, as long as you have poor people and lacked laws for companies to operate in these countries, the world won't change
U dont nessasary need the 3rd World to fix the problem, if we but our first World comapnies under force u can solve most of the problems indirectly.
If we force first world companies to control their supply chains. (which is easy if the governments would make it a law, but lobbies..)
And dont forget that most plastic waste is from fishing nets, here the governments could also make a law that the companies have to use degradable fishingnets.
90% of the problem is easy to fix, but companies would lose money so the governments dont akt.
But yeah its easier to say they (3rd world) must fix X and not hey our companies would lose a bit of money but we can fix the problem.
The amount of radioactive poison dumped into our oceans is pretty significant and a surprisingly recent phenomenon.
Hope we stop doing that, and clean up what we've thrown in there
Very informative video! Some constructive feedback: It was very obvious you were reading a script with different tone changes so try to practice reading it in front of a mirror, as if you were in a conversation.
Excellent work
Governments are to blame for not legislating to make it illegal for industry to still manufacture plastic products, plastic bags should have been banned 30 years ago.
Biodegradable bags made from plants do exist
Where's the big money support for this project?
This is nice, but will not help. Education is the only way. Educate people to break their habits to throw plastics where ever they like and stop using too much plastics. Very hard to achieve, I admit.
The cost is reasonable if the government of each country invest in these great machines. They spend way more in stupid unnecessary things. This equipment should be mandatory in all nations with waterways and coasts.
another idea is to not create and throw the plastic away in the first place
8:36 looks like its destroying more plantlife than collecting rubbish...
'statistics do not lie.' Right on
I think what all these private citizens and organizations cleaning up is wonderful. But, to make real change governments will need to change the waste management practices. They will also need to hold manufacturers accountable for the production of materials that aren't recyclable. There's so much innovation out there packaging has to be change to a different material. Chemical waste and run off would have to treated. And severe penalties would have to be levied to polluters. But, I'm just glad more people are getting involved. If everyone tries to keep their areas clean it will make a difference.
the people and the governments must get involved in the cleanup of the country or else it is not going to work..look at Singapore..my country... it is a clean green paradise environmentally. Even the children and students and businesses must get involved..
