A Student's Plastic Solution

In this article written by Timon Singh. Singh explains how a 19 year old develops an ocean cleaner that could remove about 7,250,000 tons of plastic. This really surprise me and I told myself why is that a 19 year old can actually invent this and not the scientist? The boy who created this was name Boyan Slat who won this invention at the Best Technical Design 2012 at Delt University of Technology. Im still shock how he manage to create this technology that can save over a hundred of thousand of aquatic animals and including saving millions per year for the clean up cost. This article really fascinates me how a 19 year old can change our environment better in 5 years. Although this can only happen if we do as what Singh recommends if we all do the importance of recycle and the reduce consumption of plastic package.
