Boyan Slat, Founder and CEO, on a beach in Honduras. Rio Motagua basin has its estuary close to this beach. The Rio Las Vacas in Guatemala, in which The Ocean Cleanup is trialing an Interceptor Trashfence, is leading into Rio Motagua. The plastic pollution on the beach is estimated to come from this source.
