    The Plastic Free Movement: Part 2

    Inside the Fight for a Global Plastics Treaty: In part two of our series, we're joined by Dr. Marcus Eriksen, co-founder of 5 Gyres and Leap Lab, marine conservation expert, and veteran of more than 20 ocean expeditions. At the time of this conversation, he was headed to Geneva for a critical round of UN treaty negotiations on plastic pollution, talks that are still ongoing today. From plastic-filled camels in Dubai to bottle caps that will outlast us all, this episode goes deep on where plastic pollution ends up, what it's doing to our bodies, and why local grassroots power might be the strongest tool we have.
