local.descriptionA Dutch nonprofit group committed to ridding the world’s waters of plastic on Saturday unveiled its latest invention, a floating garbage-collection barge called “The Interceptor.” It is built by The Ocean Cleanup, which said the barge would “close the tap” on the greatest source of garbage reaching the oceans: rivers. The barge, which will be anchored in polluted rivers, is capable of scooping up to 50 tons of garbage per day floating downstream, its inventor, 25-year-old Boyan Slat, said.en
