All of the plastic that we as humans have made is still somewhere on the planet, so what solutions exist to help not only remove up from places where it is causing damage but also repurpose the ubiquitous material? Philippe Cousteau hears from experts, including Donna Shiel from Sustainability Victoria, Heidi Taylor from Tangaroa Blue, Anthony Hill from Plastic Pollution Solutions, and staff from the Melbourne Zoo about what options are available to replace plastic use and what you can do to help solve the global issues of PlasticSeas.
PlasticSeas: Tracking the Source
In order to develop solutions to the challenge of plastic pollution, we must track plastic to its source. Philippe Cousteau travels to the Port Phillip EcoCentre to meet with Baykeeper Neil Blake, who explains how plastics find their way into the Bay. Philippe then hits the water with 5 Gyres Ambassador Blair Stafford to trawl for microplastics.
