"Less Plastic More Mediterranean" Rainbow Warrior Tour (Greece)
The Rainbow Warrior starts its Greek leg of the plastic-free Mediterranean tour from the island of the loggerhead sea turtle, Zakynthos. The tour aims to promote solutions to end our single use plastic addiction.
Statistics of single use plastics in Greece are heartbreaking. Each year Greeks consume approximately 300 million plastic coffee cups, 4.3 billion plastic bags and 2 billion plastic bottles, which in several cases end up in our beautiful seas and beaches. It's time for less plastic and more Mediterranean.
