#pescareplasticfree

the awareness raising initiatives of the Pescare Show exhibitors for the protection of our seas

In the Mediterranean area, Italy ranks second among the largest waste producers.
Every year it generates almost 4 megatonnes of which 26% is recycled, 60% incinerated or landfilled, while 13% of the waste is dispersed into the environment.
Italy is the country with the largest coastal extension, for this reason it suffers from the most serious impacts of plastic pollution at sea.

la scena del crimine

The crime scene

This floating art installation represents a "crime scene", the same that happens every time plastic is thrown into the sea, with the very serious consequences it has for marine species.

It was made with waste plastic found into the sea and wants to raise awareness of incorrect behavior related to the abandonment of plastic in the seas.
