TeamSeas raised $30 million to remove 30 million pounds of trash from the ocean

TeamSeas is an initiative from popular YouTubers MrBeast and Mark Rober. The campaign aims to raise awareness about the current state of our oceans, rivers and beaches, which are full of plastic trash. It is estimated that there are 200 million tons of plastic already circulating in marine environments, with an additional 11 million tons entering the ocean every year.

TeamSeas has committed to removing one pound of trash for every $1 raised. As of January 3rd, 2021, the campaign had raised $30,282,934 to remove trash from the ocean, meaning that more than 30,282,934 pounds of trash will be removed. In a June 8th, 2022 update, the TeamSeas team announced that they had just crossed the 3,000,000-pound mark, meaning they had cleaned up 10% of their total goal.

The TeamSeas project has not immediately removed all of the trash as each dollar is raised, but has committed to removing plastic and trash from rivers, beaches, and oceans in the coming weeks and months. The money raised will continue to go directly to their nonprofit partners, and the website will continue to update with the total number of pounds of trash removed from the ocean.

The Ocean Cleanup, a partner of TeamSeas, deploys a growing network of Interceptors in rivers around the world, which together have removed over 15 million kg (33 million lb) of trash so far. The Ocean Cleanup currently has 15 Interceptors in 8 countries, with many more in the pipeline. Funds allocated from the TeamSeas campaign will be used to expand and improve the Interceptors, allowing them to make an even bigger impact in highly polluting rivers. For each dollar allocated from the TeamSeas campaign, The Ocean Cleanup can remove one pound of trash from rivers.
