How #everwave cleans up the world with garbage boats

Millions of tonnes of plastic pour into our oceans every year, harming nature and humans. Every minute, a truckload of plastic waste enters the oceans - eleven million tonnes of plastic every year. The startup #everwave does something about this. #everwave relies on technological solutions to intercept the garbage 
already in the rivers and on ecological inspiration to educate society in a sustainable way. 

The startup focuses on two different Cleanup Technologies: The stationary cleanup platform HiveX which will run a first pilot mission in summer 2021 and the flexible garbage boat CollectiX, which will be seen at #salonenauticovenezia2021.

CollectiX has been constructed with the partners Berky, a boat specialist from Germany, and the German Research Center of Artificial intelligence, which equippes the boat with drones and AI, that gather data about plastic pollution. The garbage boat proved to be a game changer in the fight against 
global plastic waste in previous Cleanup Missions e.g. in Serbia or Bosnia, where it collected hundreds of plastic bottles, fridges, car tires and a lot of other things. It can pick up around 20 tons of material per day and is perfect for places, where garbage patches block the rivers natural flow. 

Next to collecting garbage, #everwave cares about a holisitc approch. The collected waste is washed and shredded after collection and, if the situation on site 
allows it, returned to the recycling cycle. In the long term, our material shall be returned to production and thus waste becomes a resource! Through environmental education the startup tries to inspire people to take care for our rivers and to create a healthy future together.
