Summary
CleanUpXL’s 30th dive in the North Sea pulls up 430,000kg of trash—mostly from the 2019 MSC Zoe container spill—with 800,000kg still lurking. Volunteers found blankets, bathrobes, and 13 bags of fishing nets, revealing pollution’s far-reaching impact. Divers also spotted unhealthy lobsters, squid eggs, and unusual slakdolven populations, hinting at deeper ecological shifts. As the project nears its final year, organizers urge the government to take over cleanup efforts—because only coordinated action can reveal the true scale of seabed pollution and push us toward real environmental accountability.
