Have you heard of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch? Every year, it is estimated that about 8 million tons of plastic escape into the oceans from coastal nations. This kind of pollution not only affects marine wildlife, the food we consume but also has a huge lasting effect on the environment.

My guest today is Tim Silverwood, who together with Nick Chiarelli, co-founded the Ocean Impact Organisation.

Listen to our wonderful conversation as we tackle the issues of plastic pollution on our oceans, for the wildlife, and the environment.
