Garbage patches and gyres The Earth’s Ocean Basins turn in giant currents called Gyres, driven by surface winds such as the strong equatorial Trade winds. Water circulates rapidly near the ocean coastlines but in the middle of each basin there is a pool of calmer, slower-moving water. When floating trash gets into the ocean, it rapidly is swept out of the areas with strong currents but it can basically get stuck in the areas with weak currents. This process has led to the formation of “Garbage p

The Dutch-led effort to clean the Great Pacific Garbage Patch has moved far beyond its experimental beginnings. Early 600-meter systems proved that large-scale plastic capture was possible. Today, the operation is defined by System 03, a platform designed to work at an industrial scale that would have seemed unrealistic only a few years ago. Developed by The Ocean Cleanup, System 03 is a 2,200-meter U-shaped floating barrier. By the mid-2020s, the project reached a critical proof-of-scale phase,
