An estimated 175 trillion pieces of marine debris are currently in our oceans, and experts predict the amount of plastic flowing into the sea will triple in the next 20 years. This pollution is devastating marine life and humans alike. At Dri, they are using recycled ocean-bound plastic to create durable umbrellas. In addition, each Dri umbrella provides community members in the countries most impacted by plastic pollution with fair wage jobs to gather plastic from beaches, coastlines, and other waterways. This supply chain creates dozens of jobs, providing financial opportunities for many people living in poverty. All are welcome to the presentation.
