World Ocean Day 2025 - You funded 10 diving missions to help clear the ocean of ghost gear

Ghost gear is fishing gear that has been lost or abandoned at sea, and is no longer under control of the fisher. It's a menace to whales, dolphins and other marine life.

5 projects launched in 2025 to clear the ocean of discarded fishing gear. 7 days spent underwater removing discarded fishing equipment. 41 volunteers who dedicated their time to make the ocean a cleaner and safer place.

1 tonne of nets and ropes recovered from the ocean floor.

Today we’re sharing an update on our efforts to remove ghost gear from the Ocean. Ghost gear is any fishing equipment that has been abandoned, lost or discarded at sea. These on-going efforts were funded by our 2025 World Ocean Day Fest! 🌊
