Exxpedition Leg5 - Helping Solve Plastic Pollution
Spende geschützt
From watching a 5-minute BBC news article about an all-female crew, sailing around the world to test the levels of plastics and toxins in the oceans; with a mission to collect invaluable samples and data for university research and explore the scale of plastic pollution…
….To being selected to sail from Aruba to Panama as part of their two-year project. Less than 3% of applicants were successful, so I am honoured and absolutely delighted to be a part of this team on such an exciting and worthwhile adventure.
The exxpedition team has a mission to:
- Raise awareness of the devastating impact of single-use plastic and toxins in the world’s oceans
- Collect samples to feed into large-scale studies and contribute to innovative scientific research to tackle the crisis
- Explore the scale of plastic pollution and the available solutions
- Celebrate women in science, leadership, adventure and create a community of female change-makers.
Why? I want to do whatever I can to reverse the detrimental impact that we have had on our planet so future generations can continue to enjoy and thrive in our environment. I want to make a positive difference and raise awareness within my community, my family and friend circles and my workplace, to shine a spotlight on the damaging effects of plastics.
The work that eXXpedition are doing is fundamental in the continued research required but is also building a community of change-makers. They are passionate about exploring solutions and sharing their journeys to help educate policy makers, organisations, communities and individuals.
Your contribution will help fund the trip and enable me to make an impact.
