"I hope we’ll look back at this as the start of a new era when humanity prioritises the health of the ocean, and not just how it can be exploited."

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #OurTwitterAnniversary It’s hard to believe it has only been 5 years, @PlasticOceanPOP friends.

Much more importantly, it’s a great day to celebrate the High Seas Treaty agreement. #HighSeasTreaty #HighSeas #Oceans

[Gemma Parkes 🌊 @gemissima]

"A victory for multilateralism." 🌊

UN member states have finally agreed to a text on the first international treaty to protect the high seas.

You can't take care of climate change without taking care of the ocean.

The plans of @PescanovaCorp to open an #octopus farm next year are cruel and dangerous. @EFSA_EU, please make sure these intelligent, sentient beings are never subjected to the horrors of #IndustrialFarming. #SavingLives

Boyan gives a 'trash tour' of the strangest objects we recovered from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

The decisions made on our watch have a magnified impact on everything that follows. It’s true that what we do in the next 10 years will shape the next 10,000 years. But in a magnified way. Because we’re at the edge of either having abundant life in the ocean or not.

Another important moment in the Plastic Journey: we have successfully finalized the recycling step. This is the first time that plastic from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch has been recycled into plastic granulate.
