By 2050 the weight of the plastic in the Mediterranean Sea will exceed that of the fish.
For Italians and their 7,600 kilometres of spectacular coastline, this should be of special concern. The Salvamare initiative by Corona and Ogyre was conceived to address this problem.
CORONA X OGYRE FOR THE OCEANS
Corona is a brand born at the beach and deeply connected with nature. In Summer 2021 it became the world’s first beverage brand with a net zero plastic footprint, and now wants to take the next step forward in the fight against the pollution of our seas and oceans. Together with Ogyre, a start up that believes in saving the seas like us, we are incentivising local fisherman to return the plastic waste they recover to shore, by paying them a fair price for their catch as if it were fish.
This plastic waste is then converted into a range of limited edition products - from tote bags, to bracelets, to swimwear and towels - which can be purchased by you. Every purchase effectively removes plastic from our oceans, helps support the fishermen and protects our seas and shorelines.
