Scientists estimate that over 600,000 tonnes of discarded fishing gear are currently plaguing the world's oceans. These nets - which are primarily made of plastic and nylon - can last in the ocean for up to 600 years, threatening thousands of marine species. 

​

On average, these nets entangle between 30-40 marine animals per net. From sharks to sea turtles to countless species in between, this type of marine pollution takes a heavy toll on the biodiversity of global ecosystems. 

​

But there's hope. Along with committed conservationists around the globe, innovative brands are re-inventing ways to recycle and reuse this harmful plastic to ensure a better future for our oceans. 

​

Enter PAPER London, a women's fashion brand dedicated to sustainable swimwear and ethically produced ready-to-wear.  As part of our new partnership, 25% of the proceeds from their popular Coconut swimsuit will go to supporting our community-led conservation efforts to protect Sal's wildlife.

With summer just around the corner, we're helping you tackle plastic pollution in style.
