Ecoer is on a mission to help save the Ocean from Plastic Pollution and save Marine Life.
Research shows that in the crisis of ocean plasticization, 90% comes from abandoned fishing nets, causing the death of marine organisms and the destruction of biodiversity and ecological habitats.
Millions of tons discarded and harmful ghost fishing nets will entangle marine lives for more than 500 years unless they are taken out of the ocean.
If one pair of sunglasses can elevate more people's environment protecting awareness, especially ocean saving awareness, and buy or will buy more sustainable articles of daily use, then it was worth all the efforts we put.
Approximately 8 million metric tons of plastic waste enters our oceans each year.
Around 100,000 marine animals die each year due to entanglement in plastic.
Plastic degradation takes 500 to 1000 years, and plastic that enters the oceans does not fully biodegrade.
The global accumulation of abandoned plastic in the oceans is enough to encircle the Earth over 400 times.
The most prevalent type of micro-plastic found in the ocean is fishing nets that has been abandoned or discarded, also known as "ghost fishing nets." This problem worsens each year. These nets pose the greatest threat to marine life among all types of plastic. Even when lost at sea, they remain a hazard by ensnaring marine creatures. Made from durable plastics, these nets can continue trapping animals for more than 500 years unless they are taken out of the ocean.
How We Make It
Did you know that discarded fishing nets account for up to 10% of all ocean waste, and are among the most harmful forms of marine plastic debris? Find out how we are repurposing these nets into sustainable sunglasses and making a positive impact on the planet
Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste end up in the oceans, causing harm to marine life and contributing to environmental pollution. Discarded fishing nets are among the worst...
