A worthy goal: getting themselves out of business

I love this:

The Ocean Cleanup is an initiative that aims at putting themselves out of business: once they have completed their  project, their work is done.

Their goal: getting rid of ocean plastic. 

And the good news, other project have the same goal.

In this article, I explain how plastic can be removed from rivers and oceans and share further projects.

And in this article, I explain how plastic can be prevented from reaching oceans on the first place. This is helpful as prevention is easier than cleaning up:

It is estimated that in 2016, 150 million metric tons of plastic are littered in marine environments (credit: chaiyapruek youprasert on Shutterstock)
