Our approach for Cleaning the San Diego's Bays

From the debris study we know that the many river, streams, and sewers empty trash into the bay. If it is not collected than it keeps causing disruption to the environment and get smaller and harder to remove. Most of this debris float and collects in areas that can only be accessed by boat. Preventing clean up, until now! By utilizing volunteers to help collect the trash from the nets we can educate thousands of the San Diego community on what they can do to prevent trash from getting in the bay in the first place. Once they see the problem first hand the volunteers will be empowered to limit their single use plastics, and take advantage of our cities conservation efforts 

Trash is skimmed off the water by driving the vessel over the areas that the floating trash naturally collects. This allows for quick, easy collection of trash despite the large area of the bay. These vessels are able to get into shallow areas where the trash enters the bay and collects them before the problem gets worse. Other city's have been successful be implementing these kinds of programs removing tons of trash out of the water before it further breaks down in the bay.  

Below is the plan to start cleaning the bay with a scalable program that can grow as our SD Clean Bay community grows. As we secure funding, grants and donations we will add more vessels, and progress to the Industrial cleaning solution that America's FInest City Deserves.
