System 03 Delivers: Our Biggest Plastic Extraction to Date

System 03 promised big things - now we're seeing just how big. View our latest extraction from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch as we remove 18,360 kg (over 40,000 lbs) of plastic - our largest ever single extraction - and see the excitement among our crew as we learn what System 03 is capable of.

And follow The Ocean Cleanup on:

Congrats! I remember when it was a self propelled prototype that kept losing plastic, now look at the scale you have reached. Phenomenal!

[MrWicked]

A tiny bit of faith restored in mankind after watching this one, and the progress of the clean-up. Thank you to all involved! God bless. 🙏

[dianethompson]

Thank you all so much. You are true heroes. ❤

Amazing! System 03 is clearly an excellent design. Congratulations! And thank you for doing this much needed work and for posting this video. The Great Waves of Change are here, and we all need to be doing so much more to restore the planet. It is encouraging to see the progress you've made in such a short time. There's hope yet!

This is such an amazing project. I hope you keep expanding and help clean our seas and rivers. Love and thanks to all involved.

[GailCrawford]

Well done. Thank goodness there are people like you that care for our oceans.

All of that will never have the opportuity to become microplastics in the food chain. As an inhabitant of Earth, I appreciate what The Ocean Cleanup is doing. These hauls and the river interceptors are so important.

You guys deserve a Nobel Prize, an Oscar, a Grammy, the Football Word Cup, the America's Cup, the Heismann Trophy, the Indy 500 Trophy and every other award known to human kind! What you are doing is probably the most important thing being being done on this planet right now. 1, 000, 000, 000 thank yous to each and every one of you women and men involved.

Congratulations to the ladies and gents of The Ocean Clean up. The earth 🌎 (and I) thank you. 18 tons of plastic in one extraction, geez, we’ve got to do better, how much more can the planet take.

Congratulations on helping to clean up our Oceans! ❤❤

[sarahbrewer]

Just so proud of everyone involved in this project, and am appalled at the human race for getting the oceans, seas and rivers into this mess.

[SD-ymrt]

This was great because it showed the clean up of the deck aswell which is something I always wondered about. Would like to see follow on videos that show how the plastic is finally processed too. Congratulations on another milestone 🙌

[BizarreAvenir]

I've seen one of these videos for the first time a couple months ago. Ever since I started volunteering in cleanups in my home area and ask for donations to ur organization instead of materialistic things as gifts. So happy to see how much was collected this time!

[valeriocugia]

Words cannot express my gratitude, thanks guys! Fantastic also the river barriers and cleanup. This idea and work should deserve a Nobel prize!

[danileuenberger]

Thanks to everyone involved and for the hard work! Keep it up, future generations will be grateful for having people like you in our time!

[zumijed]
