A staggering 8 million metric tons of plastic waste makes its way into our oceans every year, and we have yet to comprehend the full scale of its long-term effects on our ecosystems and food sources. This distressing reality brings the urgent need to address the ever-growing problem of ocean plastics to the forefront. Microplastics, the most insidious form of this pollution, have infiltrated even the most remote aquatic environments, posing a grave threat to marine life and wreaking havoc on delicate ecosystems across the globe.
In this daunting scenario, Fionn Ferreira's pioneering research technology emerges, as a beacon of hope. With Fionn’s innovation, we stand at the precipice of a turning point—a chance to reclaim our oceans and set the stage for a cleaner, more sustainable planet.
