Most of the total plastic pollution in the ocean is floating plastic, and that’s what’s most problematic for marine life because it can readily be eaten. The new study estimated that in 2020 ...

The Ocean Cleanup aims to be a temporary effort, with the ambition to reduce floating ocean plastic pollution by 90% by 2040. We will cease to exist once our mission of clean oceans has been achieved.

Plastic pollution tends to float near the surface and build up in large, rotating ocean currents known as gyres. The researchers found nanoplastics were more concentrated by coastlines and near ...

With 60% of new clothing made from synthetic fibers that contribute to microplastic ocean pollution, the murals demonstrate creative reuse of materials that would otherwise end up in landfills.

Water pollution happens the same way, Fadden said. “If we throw garbage in there, it’s going to end up somewhere else. It will seep into the ground or go into a spring or end up in a river.
