CleanHub x BPlanet
We support CleanHub in collecting plastic waste on coastlines.
The ocean is an important habitat, but it is heavily polluted with plastic waste. This is not only microplastics but also larger waste such as bags or cigarette butts. Fish, seabirds and marine mammals swallow plastic because they mistake it for food, and die from it. Because plastic breaks down only very slowly, it remains a danger for a very long time.
When we think of the beach, we probably picture something like this:
Picturesque. But that's not the case everywhere – let's look at a beach in India.
Thanks to Green Worms, a partner of CleanHub, this beach is being cleaned. You can see what that looks like here:
According to WWF, 4.8 to 12.7 million tonnes of plastic enter the oceans every year. Scientists found plastic in the stomachs of 93 percent of the northern fulmars examined. (Source: WWF)
