    Boyan Slat has one huge goal. It's a goal that could be good for people and animals all over the world. , it looks like he's going to meet his goal.

    When he was 16. Dutch engineering student Slat was on vacation in Greece, and he started to think about all the rubbish that is pushed onto beaches by water. The oceans around the world are all of plastic—millions of tons of plastic. , plastic doesn't just disappear. It takes centuries to break down.

    The present of the oceans is bad and worrying, and Slat wanted to do something to change it. So he made it a personal goal to clean up the rubbish in the world's oceans.

    Slat started with an idea for an unusual machine to "catch" the plastic floating(漂浮)in the water using the energy of the ocean. He left school in 2013 to begin work his project The Ocean Cleanup. Soon, the project received a lot of attention.

    A year later, Slat was named a "Champion of the Earth" by the United Nations for his valuable work.
