Green Hive - Turning the tide on Plastic Pollution - online

12 June 2020, Starts: 15:00, Ends: 16:00

A free webinar event exploring projects tackling plastic pollution, in coastal communities, from a Highland perspective.

Online    3.00 - 4.00

In 2020 it is estimated that there is now a colossal 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic debris in our seas and 46,000 pieces in every square mile of ocean, with this number expanding daily. There is no ‘Planet B’ for our ocean wildlife, and our coastal communities, with 97% of the world’s water held by the ocean.
.   .   .   .   
The Highland Ocean Plastic Webinar brings together an eclectic group of artists, makers, researchers and conservationists from projects relating to Scotland’s coastal communities, to the Galapagos, for shared insights on trying to look for solutions to how we can reduce the plastic pollution entering our oceans, harming our wildlife, and repair the damage being done to our coastlines.
.   .   .   .   
Join us for a live stream with our panel to learn a bit more about their work, with an opportunity to ask questions, and to find out ways you can help.
