Innovative solutions - collective efforts led by individuals, organisations and governments - are being used to combat plastic waste and preserve our most precious resource - our ocean.

What do we get wrong about ocean plastic? A lot, as it turns out! This video presents a dive into the scientific literature plus conversation with experts - to explore how we can solve this problem.

Plastic isn't recycled - it only gets downcycled. We need to be able to make a different choice - a plastic-free choice. The great news is - across our world, that change is taking place.

Howard Lack - CEO of Plastic Oceans - talks about the film Plastic Oceans and how we can do plastic a lot better - and solve the problems it causes for developing nations, wildlife and human health.
