As Co-Founder and Global Strategy Director of 5 Gyres, Anne Cummins has made it her mission to help reduce the alarming danger to our ocean life and plastic pollution.
By urging large product producers to reduce or eliminate the amount of microbeads in their products, over 16 billion microbeads have been diverted from oceans and lakes. The work of 5 Gyres has lead to pledges by major personal care companies including Johnson & Johnson, Proctor and Gamble and The Body Shop to voluntarily remove microbeads from their products.
In this episode, Anne shares about the progress and mission of 5 Gyres.
Let’s do this.
