That's cool.

The amount of trash that ends up in rivers is really pretty amazing. Especially around urban areas like DC. You toss an empty plastic soda bottle into the street, and a heavy rain will wash it into the gutter, down a storm drain, and eventually out into the river. There, the wind blows it over to the shoreline, where it and a few tons of other slimey flotsam hang out forever, or until this guy comes and cleans it up.
