Good afternoon. It’s been announced today that the band has partnered with The Ocean Cleanup, the Dutch non-profit developing advanced technologies to rid the world’s oceans of plastic. The band will directly support the non-profit’s mission by sponsoring an Interceptor, The Ocean Cleanup’s solution to extract plastic from rivers before entering the ocean.
Interceptor 005, or Neon Moon 1, will be deployed in Malaysia this year helping The Ocean Cleanup to take another significant step in tackling the world’s 1000 most polluting rivers.
