The Planet Calls – The Documentary
Every year, an estimated 8 million tons of plastic ends up in the ocean joining another 150 million tons of Plastic already there. And what’s even more staggering is that water treatment plants are not able to filter all of the microplastics that are going into the sea contributing to climate change and the potential mass extinction of marine life. Together with Idol Studios, we produced a 30-minute documentary that shows how to innovative ideas around the world are helping solve the plastic crisis.
