Across the world, waterways are choking on plastic waste — but one invention is helping clean them up.
Meet the Waste Shark, an aquatic drone inspired by nature, designed to collect floating debris before it reaches the ocean.
We explored how the Waste Shark works, why it was created, and how it’s already transforming polluted canals, harbors, and rivers into cleaner, healthier ecosystems. From its high-tech sensors to its eco-friendly design, the Waste Shark is leading a new wave of sustainable innovation in marine conservation.
Discover how cities are using this technology to protect wildlife, reduce pollution, and reclaim their waterways — one scoop at a time.
