The Plastic Hunt
In 2017 a Cuiver’s beaked whale beached on Sotra with its stomach full of plastic. The pictures spread across the world and it became known as “The plastic whale”. We had to do something, so we started the project The Plastic Hunt.
Mona Maria LøbergThe plastic hunt – our work with plastic
Ole M. Kvamme for UiBThrough attitude changing cleaning campaigns, sharing knowledge, and influencing work, we prevent plastic pollution and reduce the total amount of plastic used today. Cleaning, lectures, campaigns, and inspiring examples in text and audio format are some of the tools we’ve used on the road to a society with less plastic waste, where the plastic we use is included in a closed loop.
- Cleaning plastic and giving nature experiences that make an impression
- Make accessible information on reducing plastic
- Putting plastic on the agenda of municipalities and counties
