Device Removes Trash Floating Near The Shore Before it Reaches Sea
Seabin is an industrial scale pool skimmer that can sweep pollution from harbors and marinas before it can reach rivers or oceans.
If you've been planning a trip to Paris, you will want to be there on September 27—just don't arrive that day, cause you'll be walking to the hotel from the airport.
Thanks to a movement called "Paris Sans Voiture," or "Paris Without A Car," vehicles will not be permitted on the streets of Paris for twenty-four hours. Instead, people will be encouraged to roam free and check out music festivals and other events planned throughout the day.
"Teach your children to ride a bike, and let go of their hands safely, if they want to draw a giant hopscotch," the website reads (translated from French into English).
Although a stroll down the middle of the Champs-Élysées will be romantic, the organization Paris Without A Car cites the project as symbolic of their support for the fight against climate change and pollution.
