Check out system 03 soon to come!
There will be a smooth transition when moving from System 002 to System 03. From the Retention Zone, to switching the old wings, to finally gradually extending the wings to full potential!
Being 3 times the size as System 002, System 03 has the capacity to capture much more plastic! Altogether, cleaning the ocean will be much more economical when using bigger systems.
How is Adventure whale watching involved?
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is right of the Coast of California which makes a lot of trash float into the vicinity where our vessels go everyday and we like to help out! As a company, it is one of our goals to clean up trash as we go. Keeping the ocean clean is a very important for the environment and the marine wildlife!
Entanglements are also a huge problem due to all the garbage in the ocean. There are a lot of fishing net or line that gets lost in the waves of the ocean and if a animal is in danger, sometimes there is not a lot of traffic for anyone to send help. However, our company, reports wildlife endangerment and if needed, we will help! It is crucial that we are out on the water so we can continue to keep our marine life safe!
