BEACH BIN & BAG
VRIPAK
Annually, there are over seven billion tons of debris deposited on beaches around the world. The pollution of beaches negatively impacts the natural balance of costal ecosystems and the health of our oceans.
Plastic contributes to the bulk of the tons of discarded rubbish and washed-up debris. Reducing this pollution through beach clean-ups significantly helps allow our important coastal ecosystems to exist and thrive.
Inspired and actively engaged, Ocean Family Foundation has partnered with North Sails, the global leader in sailmaking, and Vripack, the innovative yacht design studio, to develop waste bins and bags from reclaimed sails specifically for beach cleanups.
Ocean Family Foundation, North Sails and Vripack actively promote beach cleanups among yacht owners and crew and with the Beach Bin And Bag initiative we heighten awareness of the amount of plastic waste on our shores that we can easily pick up and remove before it enters the ocean and our marine systems.
With this simple approach take the pledge here https://vripack.com/new-wave/beach-bin-and-bag to receive the bags and be part of the solution!
