Our mission is to inform people about the dangers of plastic pollution in our waters and create solutions to enable communities to recycle instead of pollute!
"Fishing nets, buoy balls, plastic net bags, oyster trays, and long lines can stay in the ocean for hundreds of years before eventually breaking down into micro plastics that can enter the food chain."

Negligent fishing practices have decimated the most beautiful life in our oceans. We're proud to emphatically stand against irresponsible fishing practices and provide a strong voice for life forms who cannot speak for themselves.

Ghost nets or discarded fishing nets in the ocean cause a massive problem to marine life as well as humans. It's important that we work together to find solutions to end the environmental destruction caused by gillnets and other discarded fishing equipment

It's important to remember that the environmental impact of disgarded fishing equipment is wide ranging, effecting not just aquatic organisms, but many different life forms across many different ecosystems.

Why aren't more people talking about ghost gear when discussing the plastic problem in our oceans, rivers and lakes? It seems the focus is on garbage, dispite the huge percentage of plastic which comes from ghost gear.

A very small step in the right direction. However, we still have a lot of work to do in our fight against ghost gear. We must demand action and accountability from corporations and our elected officials.

Fishing line can have devastating effects on wildlife when disposed of irresponsibly. Our mission is to create the change necessary to ultimately rid our waterways of ghost gear.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Tangle Free Waters and a happy new year! Yes, this Christmas tree is made of recycled fishing line ๐ฃ#tanglefreewaters#MerryChrismas
@nytimes This is why it's so important to dispose of excess fishing gear responsibly! The ghost gear problem isn't talked about nearly enough in the environmental sustainability discourse!
