Description: It’s been a challenging year, where working towards our goal of clean oceans was slowed down, but never halted. With determination, our team pulled through, with some highlights along the way. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay updated: bit.ly/371k8sN In 2020, like the rest of the globe, our activities were impacted. Despite the circumstances, our team showed resiliency as they adapted to working from home and found new ways to go to the (virtual) drawing board. It is through this determination that we deployed Interceptor 004 in the Dominican Republic, launched our first product – sunglasses - made of certified plastic from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, and confirmed our partnership with Konecranes to series produce Interceptors. These milestones prove that our mission is as important and relevant as it was before. And follow The Ocean Cleanup on: Facebook: bit.ly/2QWgmLQ Twitter: bit.ly/2RqHqSk Instagram: bit.ly/2st9SKT
