{"page_id":6,"name":"The Ocean Cleanup","bio":"The Ocean Cleanup is an international non-profit project that develops and scales technologies to rid the world\u2019s oceans of plastic. They aim to achieve this goal through a dual strategy: intercepting in rivers to stop the inflow, while cleaning up what has already accumulated in the ocean. For the latter, The Ocean Cleanup develops and deploys large-scale systems to efficiently concentrate the plastic for periodic removal. This plastic is tracked and traced through DNV\u2019s chain of custody model to certify claims of origin when recycling it into new products. To stop the inflow via rivers, The Ocean Cleanup has developed Interceptor\u2122 Solutions to halt and extract riverine plastic before it reaches the ocean. Founded in 2013 by Boyan Slat, The Ocean Cleanup now employs a broadly multi-disciplined team of approximately 140. The foundation is headquartered in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and opened its first regional office in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 2023.","relationship":"Philanthropic Partner","url":"https:\/\/theoceancleanup.com\/","status":"1","filename":"cWrb8rMET2QYlVHyTBr8m50pwTMRSf6ahecNoJBO.png","sort_order":160,"updated_at":"2024-04-25T15:08:03.000000Z","created_at":"2024-04-25T15:08:03.000000Z","id":208}
