For the past two weeks, the media has been dominated by climate change and the 26th Annual United Nations Climate Change Conference, known to most as COP26. As this year’s conference comes to an end and the agreements are made, we wanted to break down the events of this historic summit, try to explain what it all means and discuss what we could be doing to make a difference. We’ve spoken to our most loyal viewers and will be answering the burning questions you have surrounding this major political event.

Plastic is undoubtedly an amazing material. It’s strong and durable; think of plastic chairs, plug sockets and ironing baskets. Unfortunately, this strong and durable material has been adopted by almost all industries and is now being used for purposes that last a matter of weeks.

Only 9% of plastic thrown away will be recycled. The rest will end up in landfills, the ocean, or washed ashore on beaches.

When picturing lush beaches most people think of lounging in the sun while listening to the soft sound of waves spilling ashore. Unfortunately, this reality is changing for so many beaches around the world. The Sky Ocean Rescue campaign is here to raise awareness about plastic use and how we can all play our part in living a healthier earth friendly lifestyle.
