The mission of Healthy Seas is to remove waste, in particular fishing nets from the seas for the purpose of creating healthier seas and recycling marine litter into textile products. The recovered fishing nets will be transformed and regenerated into ECONYL® yarn, a high-quality raw material used to create new products, such as socks, swimwear or carpets.
On Monday, July 13th at 4pm experience a webinar, Ocean Allies: How marine species and humans can form the ultimate buddy system. Featuring journalist and broadcaster Lucy Siegle (BBC, Guardian, So Hot Right Now podcast) with Guests: Tom Mustill, Filmmaker, Conservation Biologist, and co-host So Hot Right Now podcast, along with Pascal van Erp, Founder of Ghost Diving, and Diving Manager of Healthy Seas.

Environmental Clean-up: Day 3
'Turkey Point Solutions: A win-win for Dade County and Biscayne Bay'
For over 30 years, FPL has run an industrial power complex at its Turkey Point Nuclear Plant site. FPL's flawed cooling canal system is now polluting groundwater and surface water in Biscayne Bay and beyond.
There has been inconsistent pressure on FPL and regulators to ensure a long-term solution to this unacceptable environmental situation that effectively protects the unique biodiversity and natural resources in Florida.
With your help we will build a case through the additional collection of data to gain a better understanding of the ongoing environmental damage in order to make FPL and regulators accountable.
