Why Donate Bitcoin to 5 Gyres?
Over the past ten years, we have traveled the world’s oceans in search of plastic pollution. We found not garbage patches but a smog of broken up pieces of plastic, never degrading, just getting smaller and smaller.
That’s why we dedicate the next ten years to leading the movement that will define a generation, on the path to a sustainable future based on zero-waste culture and circular economies. Together, we can change the way the world uses and discards plastic. Together, we can create a new tomorrow.
By donating cryptocurrency to 5 Gyres today, you are helping us apply our science to real solutions to make the world a better place and provide a better future for all. Thank you!
