B

Hello, my name is Haaziq Kazi. Have you ever thought about reducing plastic waste of the oceans? Here’s my experience.
It all started five years ago when I was 11. I watched a TV show about plastic pollution of the oceans. I was shocked by tons of plastic waste like bottles and fishing tools in the show. That’s how I got the idea of making a smart ship to clean the oceans. In the beginning, I made a model ship named Ervis. It was far from perfect, but it was an important step forward.
Soon I was invited to share my idea in the TED-Ed programme. The programme gave me a great chance to share my dream for a better earth. Thanks to the talk, I was more sure that making the ship was meaningful. After the talk, I did a lot of research and worked with experts to design a better ship. It can collect plastic waste and clean the oceans. The ship is large with saucers(碟状物) around it. The saucers move circularly(循环地) on the water to pull the waste towards the centre of the ship and “eat” it.
Building the ship is not my only way to help the earth. Together with my team, I’ve also founded an organisation, the Ervis Foundation. It has three branches(分支)—Hero, Hub and Hygiene. Hero is about education. We aim to create more heroes to protect the oceans. Hub serves as our digital platform to sell zero-waste products. Hygiene collects ideas about fighting against plastic waste, just like Ervis.
My journey with Ervis shows that everyone can make a difference. Find your own idea to protect the oceans and create a cleaner and healthier planet.
