In July 2020, The Pew Charitable Trusts and SYSTEMIQ, with partners including the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, released "Breaking the Plastic Wave." This robust study on ocean plastic pollution revealed that without action, plastic volume will double, ocean entry will almost triple, and ocean stocks will quadruple by 2040. This aligns with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's 2016 warning of more plastic than fish in the ocean by 2050.

The study emphasizes that a circular economy for plastic is the sole solution to tackle waste and pollution at its source. This vision already unites over 850 organizations through the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment and Plastics Pact network. Learn more about the study here.

At Talks at Google, Peter Kohler (The Plastic Tide) and Dr. Stefan Leutenegger (Imperial College London) discuss the escalating ocean plastic crisis. They highlight how plastic threatens a vital $5 trillion economic resource and humanity's life support.

The Plastic Tide initiative quantifies this problem using drone imagery and machine learning. Their work involves a vast drone imagery database and a deep-learning algorithm for plastic detection and geo-referenced mapping.

The speakers will present early results, related research, and future strategies to limit ocean plastic. Learn more about their efforts at The Plastic Tide.
