My take on why we all together need to clean up the plastic crisis. And by all I mean NGOs, Coroporations, Government and all of us.

New study shows how little plastic it takes to kill a manatee, and how much good we can do by cleaning up https://www.theinvadingsea.com/2026/03/24/plastic-pollution-manatee-turtle-single-use-cleanup-ocean-conservancy-wildlife-impact-calculator/ 🐋 #Sirenia #MarineMammals #MarineLife #MarineBiology #Manatees #Science #OceanPlastic #ManateeAppreciationDay

9 years ago today, the #TokioExpress was hit by a rogue wave and spilled a container full of LEGO into the sea. Adrift is a beautifully presented book that tells the story of this unlikely cargo spill without making light of the very serious problem of plastic pollution.

"Bringing feminist science and technology studies approaches to materiality together with hydrohumanities critiques of terracentrism, Kim De Wolff shows how ocean plastic pollution is shaped by land/water divides and the fluidities that defy them."

A team of researchers has collected data in the Pacific Ocean in order to track the routes taken by floating plastic debris. The international organization "Plastic Change" is helping to raise awareness about the increasing pollution of our oceans by plastic.

World's Ocean Plastic Waste list. Most ocean plastic waste comes from just a handful of countries with poor waste management, no surprise there in that list. What’s shocking is how little awareness and action we still have globally on this. Rivers carry vast amounts of plastic into oceans every day, mostly from Asia and some African nations. When plastics reach the oceans, then we all get affected #OceanPlastic #PlasticPollution #WasteManagement

The little #Skateboard company #KapeSkateboards [1] from #Linz, #Austria just released their first "Vanguard" deck. It is fully produced from #oceanplastic and #glassfiber. They produce the deck inhouse in Linz. It took them 5 years and about 1000 prototypes to develop it.

Coca-Cola by itself is responsible for 11% of all identifiable plastic pollution. Eleven percent! And they've fought tooth and nail against any legislation that makes them responsible for it.
