First river cleanup interceptor begins operating in the Philippines
Original: First Interceptor in Philippines Successfully Operating in Meycauayan River
The Ocean Cleanup has deployed its first Interceptor system in the Philippines, now successfully operating on the Meycauayan River. The device is designed to capture plastic waste flowing down the river before it reaches the sea. The Philippines is a major contributor to ocean plastic pollution, making river interception there a significant step for the organisation's mission.
Why now: The successful launch of a plastic-capturing Interceptor on one of the world's most plastic-polluting rivers is a notable environmental milestone.
