Gary, 23, has dedicated his young life to stop the carpeting of Bali beaches to with plastic trash. Arriving as a child, 8, from France he started aged 14 campaigning to clear up the plastic covering the beaches of Bali. Now he has invented a grill to capture all the waste coming down the rivers but still needs $500k to cover every river, sort the plastic and turn it into usable items. And he wants to meet the new Minister of Tourism who should have the money to save this precious tourist paradise.
