Hackathon targets ocean plastic and oil elimination
A group called the Universal Karmic Foundation is hosting a big event called a hackathon.
This event is for kids, students, and smart people who can design machines.
These machines will help clean up plastic and oil from the ocean and rivers.
The machines should use clean energy like the sun, wind, and water.
The best ideas will be tested and used in real life to keep our water clean.
The group wants everyone to work together to protect the ocean for the future.
Universal Karmic Foundation announces a hackathon to address marine pollution.
Participants will design machines to remove plastic waste, oil, and debris using renewable energy.
Event aims to identify practical, scalable, and eco-friendly solutions for real-world implementation.
Selected designs will undergo field trials for deployment in coastal and riverine areas.
Foundation emphasizes collective effort and public participation in environmental conservation.
