Free Sea Prize

The project is very interesting and solid. The reuse of plastics is necessary not only for having raw material but also to clean our oceans. The idea is very consistent and you have very solved the way of communicating the majority of the steps of each stage. However, It would be fantastic if you consider attaching to your products some instructions about the way these can be discarded to complete the circular economy phases. I really distinguish the visualization of the plastic collecting processes, as well as the social aspect of the proposal. It is an indication of commitment with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and it enriches the project by making it very powerful. I would like to ask about the information you specify about using 1k of rescued plastic to make 1 frame for your glasses. What happens with the rest of plastic you don't use?

I have been an activist and avid speaker over the past 8 years to raise awareness on the problems of single used plastic usage & the pollution of single used plastics in our oceans. At LMO we have eliminated single used plastic from our operations, this policy has been implemented in all MOHG hotels worldwide and since March 2021 we operate all our hotels single used plastic free and therefore is the upcycling of ocean plastic a subject close to my heart. Plastic should be recycled and where feasible completely faced out to PLA free alternatives. It is therefore that this project is close to my heart and excited to that single used plastic is given a new life by recycling into useful items.
