Click to Clean – answer below and every day you do, you’ll help remove one piece of plastic from the ocean.
Plastic by the numbers
Millions of animals are killed by plastics every year, from birds to fish to other marine organisms.
Plastics have been consumed by land-based animals, including elephants, hyenas, zebras, tigers, camels, cattle, and other large mammals.
90% of the water we drink and 33% of the fish we eat contains microplastics, leading to serious health problems.
We consume the equivalent (by weight) of a credit card’s worth of plastic every week.
By 2050 scientists predict that the ocean will contain more plastic by weight than fish.

Groups Supported by FTO:
We proudly support Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii and the Parley Global Cleanup Network. Both groups are working hard to remove plastic and abandoned fishing gear from the ocean and coastlines. They’re creating solutions to repurpose the plastic they remove, educating people on a world without waste, and working with manufacturers to help keep plastic out in the first place.
When you answer the daily trivia on Free the Ocean, these are the amazing groups you’re helping support!
