<div>This July, I’ve been selected to join eXXpedition in the Arctic, sailing from Ilulissat to Nuuk to research microplastics in one of the most fragile ecosystems on Earth.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To take part, each crew member must fund their place. I’m aiming to raise €1,500 over the next month, and I would be incredibly grateful for your support!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why this matters</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve been sailing since I was six, and growing up by the Mediterranean, the sea has always been part of my life. But over the years, I’ve witnessed a visible increase in plastic pollution, something that is now impossible to ignore.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Microplastics are one of the greatest unseen threats to our oceans. They absorb toxins and enter the food chain, impacting marine life and, ultimately, human health.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This mission will help uncover where this pollution is coming from and what we can do about it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why I’m doing this</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I previously sailed with eXXpedition in 2019, contributing to research and sharing what I learned through media, talks, and community engagement.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since then, I’ve continued to advocate for change, combining my background in external communications and journalism to raise awareness and inspire action.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I believe storytelling can drive change and I’m committed to bringing the insights from this expedition in the Arctic back to communities, companies, and audiences who can help make a difference.
</div>
<div><br />
