In A Plastic Ocean, a new feature-length adventure documentary, an international team of adventurers, researchers, and Ocean ambassadors go on a mission around the globe to uncover the shocking truth about what is lurking beneath the surface of our Ocean. The proliferation of plastic products in the last 70 years has been extraordinary; quite simply we cannot now live without them. Plastic is cheap and incredibly versatile with properties that make it ideal for many applications. We have developed a “disposable” lifestyle and estimates are that around 50% of plastic is used just once and thrown away. More than one million plastic bags are used every minute.

During its four-year production period, A Plastic Ocean was filmed in 20 locations around the world in beautiful and chilling detail to document the global effects of plastic pollution–and introduce workable technology and policy solutions that can, if implemented in time, change things for the better.
