Team Haiti is continuing to tackle this enormous trash gyre off the coast of La Gonâve!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Trash gyres such as this one won't necessarily go away once cleaned up. They're formed by the stirring motion of ocean currents and wind, so they'll typically form again within a week.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ That's why our crews are continuously visiting this area to conduct cleanup missions!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ You can help do your part by stopping plastic pollution from getting there in the first place by refusing single-use plastic in your daily lives.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ What are some ways you are cutting back on plastic in 2021?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #4ocean #haiti #oceancleanup #saveourseas #plasticpollution ⁠⠀
