Aussie Surfers Slash Ocean Pollution With ‘Seabin’

Two Australian surfers have developed a unique ocean-cleaning technology which has caught the attention of investors around the world.

The ‘Seabin’ is the brainchild of best mates Andrew Turton and Pete Ceglinski who, after spending most of their childhood in the ocean, became frustrated at the amount of rubbish floating around.

The pair quit their jobs to work on the ‘Seabin’ – an automated rubbish bin for marina docks that many hope could help reduce ocean pollution.

With the help of WA seed investors Shark Mitigation Systems, the duo designed a prototype of the bin in Perth before taking it to market in Mallorca in Spain, a marina capital of Europe.

If the venture is successful, ‘Seabins’ could hit the market in mid to late 2016.

We need to be informed and the world needs to be kept accountable.

But in an era of digital disruption and falling news audiences, the media must take a different view on what news is, and how stories are constructed.

Negative emotions have served us well during an age of flight or fight. But it’s the positive emotions that drive society forward – and that is the era we are currently stepping into.

Media has the power to move society and send a positive ripple out into the world.
