Lots of people joined and he created a saying called “the more you donate the more we clean up”. Team oceans kept on going for a lot of time until they cleaned nearly all the beaches in the world. They got popular in a flash of time.

 

Tragic Death

One day when they were cleaning up the Mediterranean Sea their boat started flooding because there was a hole at the very bottom. It was terrible they did try to go to get the lifeboats but because of the big waves there screws got loose and one fell and the other one got a hole in it. Soon the boat sank and they died. His legacy still remained of cleaning beaches and stopping pollution.
