Because of the large amount of trash in the oceans, which through various studies has indicated that by 2050 we will have more plastics in the oceans than fish. We are considering using the wind towers already installed in the seas to install a gear-driven belt system that will collect plastics on the ocean surface. This system will contain a collection bag that should be removed as it becomes full. This can be monitored by cameras or even satellite data.

The idea uses nasa data from ocean currents and data already existing in currents that create garbage islands in the oceans.
