5 Gyres

5 Gyres conducts research and communicates about the global impact of plastic pollution in the world’s oceans and employs strategies to eliminate the accumulation of plastic pollution in the 5 subtropical gyres. To stop the flow of plastic to the sea they advocate new materials, better designed products, fair legislation, and engage in consumer education. Post-consumer cleanup efforts focus on coastal and island debris removal and mitigation.
