After crossing the Atlantic, we finally reached Cadiz, Spain — but with our starboard engine controls broken, docking turned into a high-stakes challenge. I had to throttle manually from the engine room while the captain shouted commands over a walkie-talkie. One wrong move, and it could have been a disaster. Watch the full episode on our channel to see how we made it through this unforgettable finale of our Atlantic crossing. ————————————————————————— Stay connected! 🔗 Facebook: [facebook.com/bumsonaboat] Instagram: [instagram.com/bumsonaboat]

Eco-friendly research vessel" with zero CO2 emissions and renewable energy, anchored at Osaka North Port. A ship that surveys marine plastic pollution while traveling around the world without using any fossil fuel is anchored at Osaka North Port. The moored "Race for Water" is a ship that has been sailing around the world since 2017, and uses fossil fuels because it uses electric power made from solar cells and hydrogen energy made from seawater. I don't use it. "After producing fresh water from seawater with this machine, it is converted into hydrogen here. This is the first time that this mechanism has been used on a ship in the world," said Saki Kobayashi. It means that we are holding marine plastic pollution surveys and seminars on environmental issues in various areas where we are mooring, and in Osaka we will hold an online seminar using zoom. The "Race for Water" will stay in Osaka until the 3rd of next month, and will continue to travel around the world until October next year. The Race for Water Foundation is dedicated to the preservation of the water and the oceans in particular. Today, seriously under threat from plastic pollution, it is imperative that this essential resource for life is protected.To prevent plastic waste from reaching the waterways and oceans by developing social models and business models that give value to plastic waste and hence encourage its collection.
