About This Item

Dit badeendje is onstaan op "Het badeendjes Community Celebration Event" te Delft.

Friendly Floatee

In 1992 sloeg een container met 28.000 plastic badeendjes overboord van een containerschip dat onderweg was van Hong Kong naar de Verenigde Staten. Sinds die legendarische dag, dobbert de kolonie gele eenden de  halve wereld rond. Sommigen zijn aangespoeld op de kust van Hawaï, Alaska, Zuid-Amerika, Australië en de Pacific Northwest, anderen zijn gevonden bevroren in Arctische ijs. Weer anderen hebben een of andere manier hun weg weten te vinden tot in Schotland en Newfoundland, in de Atlantische Oceaan. De eendjes hebben bijgedragen aan ons begrip van oceaanstromingen, alsmede onze kennis over plastic vervuiling in oceanen.

 

Het Badeendjes event

We gaan dit concept (op een kleinere schaal) over doen. Nu alleen niet om oceaanstromingen te ontdekken maar de beweging van de TB's (en coins). Vele bezoekers hebben dan ook een badeendje als TB aangeschaft om ergens te droppen.

Hoe zal het al die eendjes vergaan? Wordt heel Nederland overspoeld met eendjes TB's? Of verspreiden ze zich door heel Europa? Dat is natuurlijk de vraag! Via :  http://badeendjes.reijsbergen.nu/ kun je na het event alle eendjes volgen .

This rubber duck was created at "The Rubber Ducks Community Celebration Event" in Delft.

Friendly Floatee

In 1992, a container containing 28,000 plastic rubber ducks fell overboard from a container ship en route from Hong Kong to the United States. Since that legendary day, the colony of yellow ducks has been floating around the world. Some have washed up on the coast of Hawaii, Alaska, South America, Australia and the Pacific Northwest, others have been found frozen in Arctic ice. Still others have somehow made their way into Scotland and Newfoundland, in the Atlantic Ocean. The ducklings contributed to our understanding of ocean currents, as well as our knowledge of plastic pollution in oceans.


The Rubber Ducks event

We are going to redo this concept (on a smaller scale). Now just not to discover ocean currents but the movement of the TB's (and coins). Many visitors have therefore purchased a rubber duck like TB to drop somewhere.

How will all those ducks fare? Is the whole of the Netherlands inundated with ducklings TBs? Or are they spreading throughout Europe? That is of course the question! You can follow all the ducks after the event via: http://badeendjes.reijsbergen.nu/.
