A marine conservation charity

stopping plastics entering the seas
The Myth
It's only one piece of plastic, what harm can it do?
The sea is vast, rubbish will not affect it adversely.
My life is not affected by plastics in the oceans.
Climate change has nothing to do with marine plastics.
The Reality
There are over 51 trillion microplastics in the sea and counting. 500 times more than the stars in our galaxy.
Plastics are in the food chain!
1/3 of all fish caught off UK shores have plastics in them.
Seafood eaters ingest up to 11,000 tiny pieces of plastic every year with dozens of particles becoming embedded in human tissues.
The degradation and breakdown of plastics represents a previously unrecognized source of greenhouse gases.

A solution based approach
The BinForGreenSeas is a practical recycling bin for plastics, but also....
Its objective is to VISUALLY EDUCATE. The design, striking colours and inspiring graphics stimulates the electrochemical signals sent to the brain. It acts on two levels: Direct and Subconscious.
Its message? Using any bin to dispose of litter will save marine life and the planet!
