Rivers.Global has developed, built and tested The River Cleaner. In this 3-minute video you can see just how efficient it is!
The River Cleaner is totally without copyrights.
It can be built anywhere. Local ownership means increased sustainability.
It’s scalable.
It can give people jobs.
It uses the river current, no other source of energy.
The frame of the prototype is built in aluminium, however other materials may well be considered. Bamboo may prove to be a very good alternative in many countries.
Contact Rivers.Global for technical drawings.
Completely free of charge, we just want to see cleaner rivers and a cleaner ocean on this planet.

We need more knowledge and a deeper understanding of why cleaner rivers and cleaner oceans are important. Our ocean is our grandest source of clean water and clean air. We can not afford to mess it up and we can learn how to take better care of it. Less single-use plastic, more recycling, better waste management both at home and at the landfill. It is about changing attitudes and actions.

A proper handling of waste is vital in order to reach the goal of a cleaner ocean. Most countries have room for better infrastructures for the handling of waste. A lot of people around the Globe live in places with no waste-collection. Because they live in remote areas where trucks can’t go, or they can’t afford the cost. The waste in these areas are burnt in backyards or simply thrown in the nature. Sadly, even the collected waste is sometimes dumped in a river or in the ocean.
All you need to know about plastics

The value of used plastics should be raised. Even the plastics that is not easily recycled, should be worth collecting for the heroes doing this work. When people get paid to recycle plastic, they will do so. Rivers.Global will work to get deposit schemes up and running in more countries. In densely populated countries like China, Indonesia, The Philippines and Vietnam, deposit schemes would be a game-changer.

Clean-up actions are only really effective when these preconditions apply: 1. Lots of plastics. 2. Easily accessible.
In many rivers, ports, beaches and of course on land both of them are present.
Clean-ups must always come after a collaboration with local waste treatment is established. There’s no need to clean up if the waste is not properly handled. Local people, such as community-groups, women’s groups, sports-teams, religious communities, schools and others can be challenged to do the actual clean-up. If you spend a Saturday cleaning up a river, a river-bank, a beach or a park, you will probably never ever throw away plastics in nature!
