Plastic Soup

Plastic Soup

When Captain Charles Moore sailed his sailboat across the Pacific in 1997 - he was in a yacht race - saw no dolphins and no whales. He saw junk, junk everywhere, from all over the world.

In the Pacific Ocean floats the largest mountain of garbage on earth: a collection of plastic with an estimated area equal to the United States. The amount of waste grows with every piece of plastic that disappears into the sea.

Since then he has concentrated with his organization Algalita op research on plastic in oceans.

An organization that is also actively involved in this is the Plastic Soup Foundation. There is a lot to see on their website and in particular what they do and what you can do yourself to help solve the problem.

Jesse Goossens wrote an impressive book on the subject. This too was an incentive to draw attention to the problem

This mind-boggling fact is the basic theme of our debut album, Plastic Soup.

With songs such as Plastic Soup, Spit it out, Cradle to Cradle and Changing Habits we want consumers, producers and politicians to think about current packaging methods and waste production. With this we hope to contribute a little bit.
