  • Races ten days

  • ago from California

  • to Hawaii. His boat

  • Adrenaline ran into

  • "AS WE SAILED

  • THROUGH THE

  • GARBAGE PATCH,

  • AT THE AMOUNT

  • OF TRASH THAT

  • WE CAUGHT AND

  • IT DAMAGED OUR

  • BOAT." The goal

  • of the Mega

  • Expedition is to

  • collect more data in

  • three weeks' time

  • than what was

  • gathered in 40

  • years. It was the

  • idea of Ocean

  • Cleanup founder

  • Boyan Slat. A

  • funding campaign

  • raised more than

  • 2-million dollars

  • which allowed the

  • Ocean Cleanup to

  • enter the testing

  • phase.

  • "WE CAME UP

  • WITH THIS

  • EARLIER THIS

  • YEAR, NOW

  • WE'RE ACTUALLY

  • DOING the

  • LARGEST

  • EXPEDITION IN

  • HISTORY SO,

  • JUST THE SPEED

  • OF US GETTING

  • THINGS DONE IS

  • TO BE VERY

  • EXCITED."

  • Standup "THE

  • FLEET WILL

  • COVER 1.4

  • MILLION SQUARE

  • MILES OF AREA

  • BETWEEN

  • HAWAII AND THE

  • US WEST COAST,

  • THEY'LL BE

  • CREATING THE

  • FIRST HIGH

  • RESOLUTION

  • MAP ODF THE

  • PLASTIC IN THE

  • PACIFIC."

  • "THEY ALL HAVE

  • SPECIFIC

  • LONGITUTE AND

  • LATTITUDES

  • AGAIN TO DO

  • THE MAPPING

  • PROCESS, TO

  • FOCUS ON THE

  • CONCENTRATION

  • S OF PLASTIC IN

  • THE OCEAN."

  • Joining in the Mega

  • Expedition is Maria

  • Weber who grew

  • up on boats. She

  • will be aboard the

  • SwiftSure Vessel.

  • "I REALLY THINK

  • IT'S OUR DEEP

  • KULEANA ALL OF

  • US TO CLAEN

  • THIS PLANET

  • FOR THE FUTURE

  • GENERATIOJNS

  • AND IN HONOR

  • OF OUR

  • ANCESTORS."

  • During hte

  • expedition,

  • vessesls will make

  • about 50 crossings

  • to conduct surveys

  • on the amount of

  • plastic they

  • encounter. The

  • crews will use

  • trawling nets to

  • sample small debris

  • The Ocean

  • Cleanup survey

  • app which will be

  • used on smart

  • phones to count

  • larger debris.

  • Most of the

  • vessels have
