“Boyan Slat” (from Holland) the same teenager that you heard about a few years ago who came up with a passive design that uses the ocean’s currents to corral the plastic for collection.
He designed a passive system for concentrating and catching plastic debris driven by ocean currents.
This won a prize for Best Technical Design at Delft University of Technology and he has established a foundation — The Ocean Cleanup — to further develop and eventually implement the technology.
Initially, there was little interest, because it would only clean 5% of the plastics in our oceans, but, since his TEDx talk, How the Oceans can Clean Themselves, went viral,
he has attracted thousands of volunteers and $2M of funding for pilot installations.
In November 2014, he won the Champions of the Earth award of the United Nations Environment Programme.
Based on his analysis of the quality of the plastic they will be able to recover this idea will actually make money buy recycling and turning some of the plastic back into oil at a
cost which is less than oil from the tar sands.
His 11 minute TED talk would be a good presentation for the older students/adults who are interested: link
The plan is to begin sea trials of his invention this year off Japan.
An in 2020 the plan is to launch a full scale 100km long net capture and containment system between Hawaii and California to tackle the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
