Ocean Cleanup to deploy updated version of its plastic-catching barriers

The video tutorial discusses the new system OO designed to collect plastic waste more efficiently. It explains the role of a parachute in slowing down the cleanup system, allowing natural forces to direct plastic into the system. The plastic collecting screen has been repositioned to prevent damage to the floating barrier. Additionally, the cork line's floats will be enlarged to enhance buoyancy and prevent plastic from bypassing the collection system.
