The Problem
At Plastic Oceanic we come from many different walks of life. We are surfers, deep sea divers, paddleboarders, fishermen, writers, activists and marine biologists, to name but a few and have all seen close up the devastating problem of plastic waste in our ocean.
We decided that we can no longer sit by and watch as our oceans are destroyed, and that we must do something, no matter how small, to help out.
We started to clean a few beaches around Cornwall in the UK, quickly realising that we must do something with the rubbish we collect as much of it is almost impossible to recycle in a conventional way.
