Today is the day! ⛵️ ✨ We’re setting sai Today is the day! ⛵️ ✨ 

We’re setting sail on a global, all-women sailing expedition. Over the next year, we’ll be completing 10 expeditions with 10 unique crews travelling to the South Pacific, Arctic, Antarctica, Caribbean and North Pacific.

Starting in Auckland today, the first leg of the journey will take us across the South Pacific, sailing from New Zealand to Tonga. 🌊

This expedition will bring together diverse women from across the world to help fill critical gaps in our understanding of where ocean plastic comes from, tracing pollution back to its sources on land and helping to identify the most impactful solutions for change.

Follow along as we begin this next chapter 💙

Here in the UK, we're feeling the need for snug wi Here in the UK, we're feeling the need for snug winter movie nights... so what better time to get your hands on the @xtrillionfilm, which is now available to rent on @eventive_org.

Filmed by one of our amazing ambassadors, @larkrisepictures, during an eXXpedition voyage, this inspiring documentary follows 14 women on an epic 3,000 nautical mile journey through the North Pacific Gyre. Along the way, they uncovered an unimaginable truth - X Trillion pieces of plastic polluting our oceans. 

Full of adventure, science, and sisterhood, X Trillion is a story of courage and connection - one that will leave you inspired to make waves for our planet 🌍

A great reflection from eXXpedition Ambassador @ju A great reflection from eXXpedition Ambassador @julietcarvalhal.

Solving plastic pollution is not about everybody dedicating entire lives to the cause, or becoming an environmentalist by profession. It’s about finding your role, and working together with others to harness theirs.
