Some wise people are creating a global movement that encourages all to #RethinkPlastic.
Social Impact Through Film
A Plastic Ocean’s message raises the awareness of plastic pollution and the existing solutions. We continue to bring this message around the world to national legislatures, city councils, schools, universities and environmental organizations. It is creating policy and social change around the world.
