Our teams never fail to amaze us!
During a cleanup operation, our Bali team stumbled upon a MASSIVE ghost net. Abandoned fishing gear, AKA Ghost Nets, are a huge threat to marine animals as they can cause severe injuries and entanglement. Remember that video of the whale shark entangled in a net? Yeah, not good.
Fortunately, our team was quick to find a solution! They took the net home, repaired it by hand, and gave it a fresh coat of paint for its new life. Now a net that once posed a danger to marine life is catching plastic flowing down the river. We didn’t write the definition for “up-cycling,” but we’d say this is a textbook example!💪
