Ocean Plastic
Overload
~17 million tonnes of plastic ends up in our oceans each year, with 50% being ghost nets / fishing gear.
Incompatible Recycling Infrastructure
Standard recycling infrastructure is rarely capable of processing ocean plastics because of contaminants, so marine plastics are incinerated or sent to landfills.
No US Based Marine Plastic Recycling Centers
There are 1,079 traditional recycling centers in the U.S.
There are 0 marine plastics recycling centers in the U.S.

We need your support for our “Project SeaCycle”, a real-world demo showing how ocean plastics have tangible value and potential beyond incineration or landfill.
We’ve already gotten started. Through our incredible partnerships in Florida and The Bahamas, we have collected & warehoused 4,000 lbs. of “unrecycleable” marine plastics already pulled from the ocean.
Now we need your help to continue the vision a world of #nonewplastic.
