## MrBeast’s TeamSeas project smashes goal by removing 34M pounds of trash from ocean

Authored by dexerto.com

YouTube star MrBeast revealed that his TeamSeas initiative has successfully removed over 34 million pounds of trash from the ocean since the campaign was first started in 2021.

In October 2021, MrBeast kicked off the TeamSeas project, an endeavor designed with the goal of raising $30 million to remove 30 million pounds of trash from the world’s oceans.

On July 16, MrBeast announced that TeamSeas has finally completed its long-term goal, successfully removing 34,080,191 pounds of trash from oceans across the globe.

The influencer also stated that this number had been verified by a third party, blowing past their initial number by over four million pounds thanks to their partnered organizations, The Ocean Cleanup and Ocean Conservancy.

This massive victory follows another initiative from MrBeast, TeamTrees, where the YouTuber aimed to plant 20 million trees before 2020 — another goal that he successfully smashed.

MrBeast is known for his charitable endeavors, having paid for people’s cataract surgeries, funding their cochlear implants, and even helping build homes for unhoused individuals in Jamaica.

This latest news comes just after Donaldson became the first YouTuber to reach 30 million subscribers and published his biggest video to date. »
