Turning Discarded Maritime Plastic into Greener Decks
The Issue
Discarded maritime plastic – fishing nets that have been lost or discarded in the ocean – make up 10% of marine litter. Their impact is serious and it’s growing. Each year they kill or injure millions of animals, including dolphins, whales and turtles. Each year they smother live coral reefs and introduce destructive parasites to reef environments. Our oceans and their marine life need help.
Our Approach
We are working with partners to remove dangerous ghost nets from our oceans and transform them into the materials used to create our scooter decks. The result is cleaner oceans and greener scooters. One more step on our planet-friendly journey.
