Sky Ocean Rescue created a whale sculpture from single-use plastics to raise awareness about ocean pollution. Inspired by a whale found with plastic-filled intestines, the initiative highlights the dangers of plastic ingestion by marine life. The sculpture, made from 250 kg of plastic, represents the amount added to oceans every second. A survey shows public support for reducing single-use plastics. The whale will tour the UK to encourage behavior change, warning that by 2050, plastics could outweigh fish in the oceans.
