As of today, the Free the Ocean community has fund

As of today, the Free the Ocean community has funded the removal of over 11.5 MILLION pieces of plastic. And now, we’re so excited to share what this looks like…⁠⠀
⁠⠀
These are a few of the images from the latest @sustainablecoastlineshawaii clean up - the results of some serious teamwork! 97 super sacks of marine debris were cleaned, re-bagged, airlifted and trucked out. The initial estimates are around 25,000 lbs and millions of pieces of plastic destined to become microplastics and other harmful debris. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
By answering the daily trivia question on FreeTheOcean.com, you are helping make this possible. THANK YOU for being part of our community, and please, keep playing FTO every day, it’s having a real impact.

‼️ A new study reveals that the United States

‼️ A new study reveals that the United States ranks as high as THIRD among countries contributing to coastal plastic pollution! This challenges the widely-held belief that the United States is adequately “managing” its plastic waste.⁠
⁠
Published by @oceanconservancy and others, the message of the study is clear - "This should be a call to action for all Americans to address plastic pollution at home. We can no longer simply put these materials in the blue recycle bin and assume our job is done. We must work to ensure the United States is not a leading contributor to the problem, but rather a leader in advancing practical and effective solutions." ⁠
⁠
Does this new informations surprise you? What are your thoughts? ⁠

A reminder to take care of yourself, take notice of any natural beauty that surrounds you (even if it's just your house plants 🌿), and breathe. 💙
