Cleaning the Great Pacific Garbage Patch
Cleaning the Great Pacific Garbage Patch
In August 2023, The Ocean Cleanup’s System002 extracted a record-breaking 55 tons of plastic from the Pacific Ocean. Following recycling, a proportion will be applied to future Kia models. Meanwhile, the new System03 technology can capture much larger quantities of plastic on a continuous year-round basis.
