Plastic Bank Prevents 2bn Plastic Bottles From Entering The Ocean
Plastic Bank, a social enterprise aiming to change the global supply chain for recycled ocean-bound plastic, has announced that it has prevented 2 billion plastic bottles from entering the ocean.
Two billion plastic bottles are the equivalent of more than 40 million kilograms of plastic that would have otherwise found its way into the ocean, as 100% of the plastic is collected within 30 miles of an ocean or waterway in countries without a formal waste collection infrastructure.
