INTRODUCING

Plastic is all around us. It’s in the clothes we wear, it’s in the food we eat, it can be found in the deepest parts of our Ocean, inside most avian species and marine wildlife. In and of itself, plastic is an incredible man-made material, with countless polymer types and applications; however, it’s daily mismanagement is at the heart of one of the greatest planetary crises Mankind is having to face. 

Our work has shown us that when it comes to taking action, prevention is often better than cure and that is why Odyssey Innovation pioneered the marine waste management sector when it set up the UK’s Net Regeneration Scheme; a first of its kind. Our work has also shown us that due to the severity of the marine plastic crisis that everyone has a role to play, from corporate entities investing in social responsibility programs, to governments creating mechanisms for supporting societal change across the board and for individuals alike to not wait around for change to happen, but for them to be the change, like our very own Founder and Managing Director Rob Thompson.
