The bubble barrier cleaning up rivers

How Dutch inventors are removing plastic from rivers with a ‘net’ made from bubbles

How can we stop plastic flowing from our rivers into our oceans? Dutch inventors have one solution, pulling plastic from the water using a ‘net’ made from bubbles.

Plus - we look at how sound could be used to help restore coral reefs in Australia. Scientists found playing the sounds of a healthy reef under water, could attract fish back to the site. They hope to combine this with coral seeding to rebuild reefs that are teeming with life.
