This guy has been around for a long time and now you decide to do a video on it?
How about recycle in the first place & maybe think about donating to Boyan's campaign!
That's awesome but it's sad that it needs done at all..
We need more of this.
Run for President and I will VOTE for you!
When do we cut down on plastic use? No more soda and water in 16oz plastic bottles.
This is an amazing young man. This is such an incredible venture. ❤
This guy picks up a couple of pieces of litter and suddenly everyone is willing to forget what he did to Natalee Holloway. Shameful.
This young man is doing an amazing work cleaning our oceans. We must all do our part!!!
Great human being doing his part to keep the earth clean and enjoyable for both sea life and human life 🤔🙏🙏
Definitely a you tube show on the weirdest finds from the clean up.
So nice of Silicon Valley’s Big Head to clean up after everyone else’s Big Gulps.
Let’s keep ordering from china
– a white person
NOW THIS IS A HERO FOR ALL!
Totally support Ocean Clean but this job will be never ending because humans continue to use inorganic plastic and continue to dump it in our waterways.
You don't understand the hostility towards the continuous bombardment about Climate Change but the Facts Are Scientists have No idea what this planet has in-store for us and they should be talking about Overpopulation which is the cause of Every Form of Pollution instead of a symptom like Carbon emissions!!!!!
We need more of this to help us. Also don’t litter.
What do they with all that plastic once it is swept up from the rivers and oceans?
Love him. I will vote him for president, he is trying to make a difference.
Amazing wonderful person doing work to help the whole road. GOD bless this organization
Dude that’s crazy
I love the Ocean Cleanup Project, thank god they're doing something about it.
Makes Musk look like a real POS 👍
There are no limits to what we can achieve except the limits we set upon ourselves.
We need more news stories like this. Less division less hate less greed and more good. Thank you. Please keep it up. Please be the change we need in media.
Okay Mr Burns
Bravo. That is where all my money goes when I die
Thumbs up on him actually doing something, as compared to that Norwegian girl (whatever its name is), puppeterring on a world stage, and where is she when Japan is about to dump its nuclear waste water into the ocean?
humans are a virus to this planet.
