'Traffic lights' for beaches: Could a high-school invention stem the tide of drownings?

"The community part was saving lives, and the beach was the part that I love and is my passion."

Jackson produced an early version of Ocean Live for his HSC in 2018, which used a"traffic light" system to warn of developing, present and dangerous beach conditions. Jackson's father Dean Harrigan said when the project impressed his teachers and peers, he saw an opportunity. The Ocean Live is now a reality, with Dean Harrigan funding the start-up, with intentions to move it to a not for profit model.

Might be the time to teach children about existential threats to them like drowning and asbestos, rather than much of the vacuous left wing political waffle that's pumped into them right now.

Nope. Because people obviously ignore signs and flags etc
