There are even laws that do not let people swim in the water. 11-year-old Raphael wants to clean the river. He wants people to swim in the Seine by 2024. That is when the city will host the Olympic Games.

Cleaning the river is a big job, Raphael fishes rubbish out of the river. He has done it nearly every weekend for the past two years. He fishes with his dad. They can catch a ton of rubbish in a single day. They have caught anything from phones to scooters (滑板车). The biggest thing Raphael found was a motorcycle (摩托车).

Raphael learned about cleaning rivers from YouTube. In 2019, he found a video. People were fishing metal (金属) objects out of rivers. They used ropes tied to magnets (磁铁), Raphael asked his parents for supplies. He wanted some ropes, a hook (鱼钩), and a powerful magnet. The magnet was very strong. It could attract metal objects weighing more than a ton (吨).

Last October, Raphael won an award for his efforts. He received the Medal of Paris. Raphael is confident about his progress in the last two years. A section of the Seine is clearer than the rest of the river. That is where he first started fishing for metal.
