Dutch inventor Boyan Slat walks in front of his first prototype of The Ocean Cleanup on 23 June 2016 off the Dutch coast in Scheveningen.
Boskalis, which together with the Dutch government contribute 1.5 million to the project, provides carrying the prototype created by 21 year-old inventor. Slat's innovative idea -- first drawn on a paper napkin when he was still in high school -- seeks to use ocean currents to gather up the masses of bottles, plastic bags, flip-flops and other detritus that sully the planet's waters, eliminating the need for an army of boats to haul them in. / AFP PHOTO / ANP / Remko de Waal / Netherlands OUT
