Qué cubre este vídeo

A GoFundMe-funded marine debris cleanup at Coombe Island, the final beach in a series along the Outer Barrier Reef near Cape York, Queensland, pulls 450 kg of debris in a single day.9:34 The centerpiece find is a buried tow rope 177 meters long and 470 kg in weight, which the crew cuts into 18 segments using a battery grinder so it can be handled in dinghy loads.16:17 Each loaded dinghy run covers two miles between island and boat, taking 30–40 minutes against a one-knot current running through a 25–30-meter-deep channel between islands.8:18 A roughly two-meter crocodile encountered on the waterline forces Jess to sprint back to the dinghy.9:07 To clear ants and spiders from the rope segments before a customs crossing, the crew splices loops into each segment and trails them behind Brupeg while steaming, washing off sand and insects underway.10:47 Anchoring in 22 meters required nearly all 60 meters of chain; hauling it back takes 15 minutes.13:36 Debris is offloaded at Seisia at the top of Cape York and recycled through a partnership with Tongaroa Blue and the local Aboriginal Council.16:35 Total debris removed across all beaches on the northward passage exceeds 2,000 kg.17:02
