Today, with our long-term eco innovation partner, Parley for the Oceans, we are announcing our latest mission to address the specific and far-reaching impact plastic waste is having on the earth’s water systems.
With 350 million tons of virgin plastic produced every year, plastics have now made their way into every part of earth’s ecosystems. From improperly discarded plastic waste to microplastics which migrate through rainwater, the material is polluting some of the most remote places on earth – from the deepest oceans to the highest mountains.
And with all plastic waste eventually making its way to the oceans, the actions people take in the mountains have an impact on the ocean, and vice versa – forming a cycle of plastic that reaches all corners of the planet.
