This document discusses optimizing future ocean cleanup efforts. It analyzes data from a Booz Allen Hamilton app from 2015-present on ocean garbage collected. Key findings include plastic being the most common item, and clustering cleanup sites into land, watercraft, and underwater types. Maps show population density and cleanup locations correlate. Over 1300 entangled animals were found dead, with 96.97% from 25 states. Twitter data shows public awareness of the issue. Recommendations include providing pocket ashtrays and disposal sites to address cigarette butts being a major contaminant, using mesh bags and diving knives to aid underwater cleanup, and targeting regions like the West and Midwest to increase participation.

1. Ocean Cleaner,
Future Greener

2. Intro
● Discover the current status
● Optimize future ocean cleanup
● Make the planet better

3. QUESTIONS!

4. Q1
Can you guess the amount
of ocean/water-body garbage
collected and recorded on this
Booz Allen Hamilton App from 2015
to now?
Q2
Can you name the
states highest average density of
and the highest total
water-body garbage
collected?
Q3
Do you think 2016 saw
a dramatic shift in national
interest in ocean-water pollution
And why?

26. Conclusion &
Recommendation

27. Recommendation 1 - Proper Place for Cigarette Butts
1. Awareness
2. Pocket ashtrays
3. Cigarette disposal sites

28. For Land
Rubber grippers make it
easier to collect small
pieces such as plastic
fragments and cigarette
butts.
For Underwater
Mesh bags can let the water
flow out while storing garbage.
Diving knives can be used to cut
entanglements such as fishing
lines and seaweed
Recommendation 2 - Tools for garbage collecting

29. Recommendation 3 - Increasing participation by Targeting
1. Participation across the different regions in the
has decreased.
1. The biggest concern is the Western regions
of the US.
1. Midwest has low participants to total
population ratio.
