Green Visions Film Series

The film follows the plastic industry from its beginnings to the plastic-filled present. It shows how plastic trash ends up in the most remote corners of the planet. Particles of decaying plastic at sites such as the Moroccan desert and the Pacific mean certain death for the birds and sea creatures that live there.
