To create a long-lasting impact on plastic pollution, use and disposal, we need to see changes to the law. In August. #eXXpedition ambassadors Sandra Squire (@sandra_squire), Morgan Goodman (@morgood), Catherine Cieczko and Juliet Carvalhal (@impactbluefoundation) led a #SHiFT Community Hub event to share their experiences of working in policy and their advice for creating change. You can read their advice through the ‘New Blog’ link in our bio!

📷 was taken in 2017 of our eXXpedition crew members in Scottish Parliament during our Round Britain voyages.

There are hundreds of solutions to tackle ocean plastic pollution. ⁠
⁠
Deposit return systems are one way we can encourage people to think of plastic bottles not as waste, but as a resource to be used again and again.⁠
⁠
It’s like buying the drink, but borrowing the bottle.⁠

Founder of Plaine Products, eXXpedition Ambassador and Round the World Leg 5 Crew Member.⁠
⁠
In 2017 Lindsey launched Plaine Products - a company working to offer a solution to single-use plastic consumption.⁠
⁠
Co-founded with her sister, Lindsey's company offers premium personal care products in aluminum bottles that can be returned, refilled and reused, and act as an alternative to single-use containers.⁠
⁠
To date, Plaine Products have eliminated 300,000 plastic bottles from the waste stream. ⁠
⁠
As part of our Ambassador Spotlight Series we wanted to showcase these achievements by telling Lindsey’s Superpower Story.⁠

Are you interested in the impact of plastics in the Caribbean? Join authors of eXXpedition's recently published study 'Source, Sea and Sink' on the 14th September 2021 at 2-4pm UK time for a discussion on a holistic approach to understanding plastic pollution in the Southern Caribbean. ⁠

Most plastic drink containers are highly recyclabl

Most plastic drink containers are highly recyclable⁠
but globally, only 2% of plastic packaging is recycled in a closed loop where products are turned back into one of similar type, quality and value. ⁠
⁠
We need well-designed systems that shift the way we consume, use and dispose of items that often end up in the wrong place, such as bottles. By adding value to the empty bottle or can, and setting national targets for collection, more plastic bottles will go back into a closed loop system.⁠
⁠
Let’s keep bottles and other kinds of plastic in the loop, and out of our oceans.⁠

One million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute. Survey data from international coastal cleanups has found that plastic beverage bottles and caps are consistently in the top-five items littered on beaches. ⁠
⁠
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Stay tuned for our first #solutionspotlight ! ⁠
