75% of all ocean garbage is invisible to us: It sinks directly to the ocean floor, where it kills corals and endangers marine life.
We teamed up with Coral Soul from Spain to clean up the ocean floor 40 meters beyond the sea, and save a marine paradise that was slowly turning into a coral graveyard.
Underwater currents made the work difficult and even dangerous. But equipped with the right tech from the Planet Wild community, we were able to navigate the ocean depths efficiently and safely.
A big thank you to Coral Guardians for facilitating this mission.

Hi sir how to join up your team 😍to save...
@@dineshg5972 Hey, it's super nice that you'd like to work in the area of nature protection and join us! The world definitely needs that! Unfortunately, we do not have any open positions right now.
I think the fishing industry should also contribute,
because cleaning their garbage actually brings back more fish for them.
It is so good to see that there are people out there who actually care about our planet and do something meaningful!
Exactly how we feel! 😊It's so inspiring to see how many people are joining us from day one to support our missions and make possible even bigger ones!
That's what we do! 😊🌎✨
This whole action should be payed as a penalty fee from the fishermen who left the nets down there. Thank you guys for your effort
Unfortunately it's really hard to track who exactly throws or loses them in the open sea... Thanks for your encouragement ☺
Shouldn't that be anyone who eats fish?...
@@planet-wild aren't fisherman paying taxes and fees to access the sea? they should, in the same way that we pay taxes for the upkeep of roads and public spaces, these taxes paid by people extracting value from the sea could be used to keep the sea clean!

@@ayeyebrazorf7527they do in most places, but politicians use that money to line their own pockets
Another proof that we need to increase our efforts to stop more plastics from reaching the ocean.
Absolutely! And decrease the plastic usage in the first place.
For anyone that is unclear about the danger, to go below 30 meters you need specialized training and gas. You can't just dive with regular oxygen because the time you can spend at this depth safely is basically zero.
Why isn't this channel more popular? The production value is amazing
We are just starting and would be super thankful if you helped us spread the word! 🚀
Feel free to forward our videos to people who you think might be interested. 🙏 And subscribe to our channel to make sure you don't miss any future videos. ☺
The next one is coming out in a few weeks! 🌲
Share links on your social media to spread the good word :)
I was scared for the divers all along, that is a really dangerous job where mistakes easily become lethal. Thank you for caring for the earth.
Indeed! It's far from being a walk in a park. Thanks for your encouragement! 🙏
Damn! Earth is an unique planet that has life as we know it but the way we treat our planet is a crime. God bless you for taking care about environment!
🙏
This is incredible! I have always been worried about the plastic situation of the ocean, really glad to see people taking care of it! This channel really needs more attention!
Thanks for your encouragement! ☺Feel free to share the video with anyone who you think might be interested to learn about this issue - this would be a great help.

Life In Bamboo recommended your channel. Subscribed. I'm from Florida. USA.
Welcome to our channel! happy to have you on board.☺Our next mission goes live in 3 weeks, but you can check our shorts in the meantime, if you want to learn more about the wildlife 💚
Wow!! Seeing the before and after shots of the corals is just so incredible!
Happy you liked it! 💙
I would have thought that with them doing this twice a week, it would cost way more than 5000 a month. What an amazing project and cause :)) So awesome to see people doing amazing things like this
Thanks for the support and feedback! 💙🙏 It certainly shows that such little efforts and contributions, create positive ripple effects to change our planet for the better. 🌎 🌊
Fantastic work everyone. You are heroes for the planet!
Gold to know you loved the work we're doing 💙🙏 Thanks so much for the support 💙
When I see the faces of this people ( full of satisfaction) this really get me motivated to believe there out there really exist people who cares about others living kinds
There are many people who do that!
On every mission, we meet people who dedicate their lives or at least a considerable amount of time to just that. 💚
This is such an amazing project. I hope the coral they save can flourish for many years to come.
After what we have seen onsite, we are positive that they will! 🌊
This is what makes me love your organization. You see beyond the surface of things
These people are true heroes ! They are, quite frankly, saving the lives of the plants and animals that form the huge, interconnected web of life that make up those coral reefs. And the knock-on effects of their work is vast. Great job, Coral Soul ! Thanks also to Planet Wild for shining a spotlight on their work !
Thank you so much appreciating our efforts! Consider subscribing to our channel and stay tuned for more amazing missions like this one 💙
Wow, fantastic new mission! I’m super happy to be able to support such an amazing group of people dedicating their free time to save our oceans.❤
Thanks for your support Peter! 💙
Cool
Thank you for supporting this extremely important work, and for documenting it.
Thanks for the support and appreciating our efforts in our mission! 💙😊
The best way to help the ocean be free of plastic is to stop it getting there in the first place. As it was said in the video most of the plastic are from fishing industry, we must stop eating fish to help our ocean, we have a lot of alternatives for fish.
🙌 While this is not the case, let's do everything in our power to keep the corals plastic free.
Plenty of communities rely on fish and cannot simply cut it out of their diets. Instead what we need to do is implement safe and SUSTAINABLE fishing practices that do not pollute our oceans with plastic.
🌊🐚🐬
So proud of you folks...you rock ❤ Thx for supporting such an important cause!
Thanks for supporting us with your encouraging comments 💚
Thank you, Coral Soul, and Planet Wild. You're doing such important work.
@@StopWhining491 Thank you four your support 💚
It's so wonderful to see that there are people who are making a difference. Thank you very much for your work! It's also great that you give background information. There is so much to do, how do you decide what to tackle? 😅
No matter where you look, there is garbage everywhere! In most heads it is still not arrived that we must do something, each individual should contribute, let it be "only" always having a reusable bottle of water made of glass or the like, instead of buying a plastic bottle on the road. Ok, in the video in this region 75% of the plastic in the ocean comes from fishing nets, but the other 25% comes from people. In the video we saw many plastic bottles above and in the ocean, as an example.
About the membership: I'm sure if you offered an additional 10 Euro membership, most people would choose it instead of the 5 Euro membership. I know I would :). Most people joining you are aware of the problems and maybe donate regularly, I already donate a lot, financial resources are unfortunately finite.
Thank you!
Thanks so much for your support and encouragement. 💚
There is indeed an overwhelming amount of environmental issues to address, and deciding what to tackle first is not an easy task! We have a blog post where we explain, how we decide, whether a project qualifies. Have a look, if you a curious planetwild.com/blog/heres-how-were-selecting-our-projects.
Absolutely agreed on the need to spread awareness and the power of little steps! Creating awareness is an important part of our mission - we believe that we can make a significant difference together, by spreading awareness and taking individual steps towards a more sustainable future.
Thanks for being a part of this journey ☺
I'm here from Astrum. You all are amazing. Definitely subscribed!!!
Thanks for your feedback and being a part of our community! 💚
Great initiative. Keep up the good work. Curious to see what comes next. I am proud to support Planet Wild. Let a 1000 flowers bloom!
Thanks a lo for your support and encouragement! 💚
Thanks for doing this. We all live on the same planet and share the same oceans. Even though I don't live in this region and I don't see the effects of ocean pollution in my daily life, I feel that doing a little bit of work like those guys are doing will have an effect on other marine ecosystems as well! Next mission: Great Pacific Garbage Patch? :-)
Absolutely! The effects of ocean pollution in one region can have far-reaching consequences for marine ecosystems around the world, so we are all in the same boat.
We'll consider the Pacific Garbage Patch 😉, in the meantime, all of us can contribute by reducing plastic waste💪.
Thanks to the Astrum channel I have found this amazing channel. So good to find people that bring hope through action.
Thanks for your kind words and welcome to our channel! ☺

Sabine brought me here! I've signed up! I love the work you guys are doing ♥️ Faced with government inaction on pollution and climate change, we have to try and make any difference that we can while we still can.
Thank you so much and welcome to our channel! 💚 We're so glad to have you as a part of our community. Together we can make a real difference for our beloved planet! 💚🌍
Wonderful video - and such important work, wow!
Ich finde das Video richtig gut gemacht.
Ich liebe diese Missionen, kleine Organisation vor Ort mit Geld und Ausrüstung zu unterstützen, anstatt selber von Außen in ein Land zu kommen um etwas eigenes zu machen. Auch die ganzen Hintergrundinformationen zu der Sinnhaftigkeit dieser Projekte bin ich sehr dankbar und auch Fakten zu hören, wie in dem Video, dass 75% des Plastikmülls von der Fischereiindustrie kommen finde gut zu wissen. So weiß ich, dass der erste Schritt, denn ich gegen Meerverschmutzung machen kann, ist, auf Fisch zu verzichten und dann danach erst meinen Plastikverbrauch zu reduzieren.
Und das alles in hochqualitativen Videos zu dokumentieren ist richtig cool. So weiß ich als Unterstützer wo mein Geld direkt hin geht. Ich bin dankbar für eure Arbeit und glücklich ein Teil davon zu sein.😊
Thanks so much for your detailed feedback and support! It's really inspiring for us to know that our community members are hungry to understand this world better and are willing to take active steps to make a positive change. It means the world to us. 🌎

@@planet-wild yes
It sounds like regulation is needed on fishnet usage.
If fishermen keep dumping their old nets in the sea, then they should only be able to buy a limited amount of them. And they should have to return the old nets if they want to buy new ones. Each net could have a serial code or chip on it to track who bought it. If they don't return them, then no net 4 u.
Or, they should ban nylon/plastic fishnets entirely and go back to what fishingnets used to be made of - rope
Amazing work, what a fantastic effort to support! Can’t wait for the next!
Thank you ❤

@@planet-wild you’re very welcome ☺️
FANTASTIC WORK!! There's something that most are not either understanding or simply don't care is that what the plastic particulates will eventually do is to shut down the natural sea water to fresh water desalinization system and once that happens it will be too late
Supercool channel - you converted me from a passive environmental enthusiast to an active one (i.e., taking action locally as well). High five!
That's fantastic news! Thanks for letting us know. Please send us any updates on your local actions.
Wonderful work, we need this worldwide!
God bless you all❤
Thanks for your support and feedback! 💚
Have you guys ever thought about combining with Mossy Earth????? You guys do the same work, maybe you both could be more effective or widespread if y'all worked together...
Thanks for this idea, Danielle! We don't have any specific plans for collaboration with them at this point, but that indeed might be interesting.👍
Imagine what we could do without having to decompress. Half the time is just spent waiting. Larger, deeper cleanup efforts will be unfeasible without substantial financing. Hell, there are some areas where you would need saturation divers staying compressed for a week to truly make an impact. That will cost millions.
There is potential for implantable nitrogen scrubbers or even liquid breathing in the future. Which could be a game changer for ocean floor cleanups.
Thanks for your work!
Thanks for your encouragement ☺
Gongratulations for your work! I hope more people are inspired by you and imitate your actions!
Awesome work! Thank you❤

Does most of the plastic then end up as shallow marine sediments?
Thanks for the video, good work
Thanks a lot! 🌊
Amazing work! These divers are so cool wow ❤️
You're so cool Johannes 😊🌎✨
Planet Wild, I am totally blown away by this ambitious, awesome project! Everyone concerned deserves heaps of gratitude for taking this on, considering how much work and expense is involved. It is sad that so much plastic rubbish has ended up in the seas, and what a seemingly endless task it is to clear the stuff. I am wondering though, what is to prevent the plastic netting, etc, from eventually getting back into the sea? Does it just go to landfill, or can it be salvaged and repurposed somehow?
Thank you for highlighting this important mission, and Good Luck in all you do. As one of your backers, I look forward to more of this vital work.
I became a Planet Wild supporter today after watching Sabine Hossenfelder's latest video, which is about global warming. Ocean cleanup is vital work, but even more important is campaigning for a positive mentality change in the global fishing industry. Fishers must be educated, and given incentives, to stop discarding their nets and other gear at sea.
Thank you so much and welcome to our channel! 💚 We're proud to have you as a part of our community. We agree with your concern and thoughts to care for our Planet! 💚 Together we can make a real change for our beloved Planet! 🌍💚
@@planet-wildChange we MUST, otherwise doom awaits us.
This is one reason, why I learn to scuba dive, to clean up the sea.

You can clean up the plastic forever and it's not going to solve the problem. Everyone needs to force the petrochemical companies to STOP using petroleum based oils and instead use plant based oils, that break down into non- toxic biodegradable waste. Fishing nets would still be dangerous for sea-life until they decompose.
That’s actually a good idea 👍🏻! Are there any advocacy groups fighting for the use of plant based compostable materials in manufacturing?
