Metal debris in oceans poses serious threats to marine life and ecosystems. Here are actionable steps to combat this issue:
Proper Disposal and Recycling: Ensure hazardous metals are disposed of at certified facilities like UNSCREWED to prevent improper dumping.
Community Cleanups: Participate in or sponsor local beach and river cleanups to remove existing debris.
Industrial Waste Management: Advocate for stricter regulations and enforcement to prevent industrial runoff containing metal debris from entering waterways.
Innovative Barrier Systems: Support research into systems that intercept debris in rivers before it reaches the ocean.
At UNSCREWED, we’re committed to helping businesses and individuals take proactive steps to protect our oceans from hazardous materials.
