What is the problem you found?

How might we decrease the amount of pollution going into the ocean?

Customer / Problem

Plastic waste in the ocean is currently killing sea life and polluting aquatic habitats. Humans are often unaware of the dangers of plastic pollution or don't care about the impact of their actions. We want to help clean the ocean and provide a tool for those that are focused on ocean cleanup such as charities and volunteers focused on helping the environment. 

What Is Your Solution?

To solve this problem, we have designed a robot that collects rubbish in the ocean and uses the rubbish for fuel. This would be a sustainable solution that protects aquatic life. We would sell it at a discounted price to charities and volunteers so they can clean up the ocean in their local areas.
