Too bad we need such vessels :-(

I think we need an entire armada of this kind of vessel. Great image.V

A great image of this ship that will complete a very important task.

What a great idea. This is sorely needed and I wouldn't be surprised to see more ships outfitted for this. Excellent sharp shot. V

so sad that we have to clean up our oceans (after all the dirty we have deposited there)..V.

Interesting indeed! We must clean up the waste from our consumer society! A fine image of this ship! V

Very interesting. Wikipedia has an article on the organization, its goals, funding sources. etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ocean_Cleanup

It has its work cut out....I'm sure it looks up to the task.

Glad to see such things! It is a shame that we need them...
