This is killing our environment and there needs to be a change.]]> 2018-04-02 00:55:39 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714100 Plastics Found From the South Atlantic Gyre (Ocean Patch) goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714260 2018-04-02 00:57:00 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714260 The Five Gyres In The World goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714581 2018-04-02 00:59:49 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714581 The Innovation goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714792 Boyan Slat founded The Ocean Cleanup innovation in 2013 after he went scuba diving in Greece and saw more plastic in the ocean than fish. The Ocean Cleanup (2018) is a system made by Boyan that is a large, flexible pipe made from recyclable material and screen that is 1-2km in length that moves with the current to catch the plastic in the ocean waters. ]]> 2018-04-02 01:01:42 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247714792 goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715212 2018-04-02 01:06:32 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715212 goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715279 2018-04-02 01:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715279 goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715318 2018-04-02 01:07:56 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715318 The Outcome goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715433 The innovation has reached many milestones that can be found on their website. The Ocean Cleanup (2018) states that their goal is to have 50% of the plastics in the oceans cleaned up in 5 years and to have the oceans plastic free by 2050. This innovation will not only improve the quality of the ocean environment, it will also impact our health because removing the plastic will allow for the fish we eat to be toxin free since many digest the plastic floating in the ocean. It will also make it less likely for our drinking water to be contaminated. ]]> 2018-04-02 01:09:29 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247715433 Local Application goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247716743 This innovation can be used across the lakes in Canada, specifically Lake Ontario which is what Hamilton sits on. If we put this innovation in Lake Ontario, it will make the waters more safe to swim in and it will also allow for our locals to go fishing and catch healthier fish.]]> 2018-04-02 01:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247716743 goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717007 2018-04-02 01:26:53 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717007 Before and After The Ocean Cleanup Expectations goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717061 2018-04-02 01:27:35 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717061 Conclusion goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717310 This innovation is going to impact our environment completely. With those goals in mind, I think The Ocean Cleanup team will strive to accomplish them. Our oceans contain way too much garbage and this project is going to help us overcome that obstacle and save our sea animals, our environment and us.]]> 2018-04-02 01:30:14 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717310 goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717596 2018-04-02 01:32:58 UTC https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717596 References goodluckcharlie1274 https://padlet.com/goodluckcharlie1274/aksbopuj1puy/wish/247717780 Ocean Cleanup.
