About Plastic Odyssey<\/h1>\n

A global project to reduce plastic pollution<\/h2>\n

Plastic Odyssey is a global project to reduce plastic pollution in the ocean by creating a worldwide network of local recycling initiatives. The project is supported by various actors who all share the desire to build a world in which plastic waste does not end up in the Ocean.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”parallax” parallax_content_width=”in_grid” text_align=”center” full_screen_section_height=”no” background_image=”15877″ section_height=”350″ el_class=”overlaykrack_wave wawetopone” css=”.vc_custom_1725481964302{padding-top: 200px !important;}”][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” z_index=”” el_class=”a_propos_shadow” css=”.vc_custom_1593967201924{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}” anchor=”more” side_padding=”5″][vc_column width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1594806380361{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}” el_class=”shadow2 align_center tablet_halfwidth”][vc_single_image image=”4942″ img_size=”” alignment=”center” qode_css_animation=””][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Field studies in the Mediterranean Basin, Africa, and Asia to prepare the expedition<\/h3>\n

To prepare for the expedition that will take us around the world, Plastic Odyssey traveled to Burkina Faso, Thailand, Egypt, and Lebanon to meet men and women who are conducting experiments on the use and recycling of plastic.[\/vc_column_text]Discover Our Stopovers<\/span><\/a>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ el_class=”mt2″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Ulysse, the first boat to navigate thanks to plastic waste<\/h3>\n

To demonstrate that successful solutions for turning plastic waste into a valuable resource exist, Plastic Odyssey created Ulysse in 2018: a catamaran that navigates thanks to plastic waste turned into fuel.
\nUlysse sailed around France to raise awareness concerning plastic pollution <\/a> and to vividly manifest the success of its low-tech solution.[\/vc_column_text]Discover the Plastic Odyssey<\/span><\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
