The plastic is a real hazard that could clog up the seawater pumps used for cooling during the electricity generation process. An IEC team worked to clean the waste in recent days.The cleaning process ensures a reliable and available electricity production process and cleans the sea at the same time. In addition to being harmful to power plants, plastic pollution is also a major hazard to marine life ecosystems, and the oxygen they provide the planet.
Last month, environmental groups, local authorities and thousands of volunteers came out in Israel in an attempt to break the world record for trash cleaned from beaches, while also spreading awareness about the dangers of plastics polluting the ocean.
