Fondation de la Mer
The sea has always been a source of vital energy for humans. Thanks to the presence of marine plants, the ocean releases more oxygen into the atmosphere than all the world’s forests. But aquatic pollution is suffocating this ecosystem, with 80% of it coming from land. Today, there is one piece of plastic waste for five fish. If we do not act, in 30 years there will be more plastic than fish in the oceans!
In 2024, we are committed to working alongside the Fondation de la Mer to save the blue lung of the Mediterranean. We are taking part in a large-scale Posidonia seagrass of Mediterranean restoration programme, a vital source of oxygen and powerful carbon sinks with eight times the capacity of our forests, these. Endangered by human activity, 10% of the Posidonia meadows have been destroyed in the past 100 years.
Since 2021, we support projects to help combat plastic pollution in the oceans, and organise our own annual coastline cleanup operations in France and worldwide on World Cleanup Day.
TAKE ACTION TO REMOVING PLASTIC FROM THE SEA AND LAND We are continuing our investment since 2021 to reduce plastic waste both at sea and on land, thanks to pollution-removing boats. In 2023, 27 tons of waste were collected in Denpasar in Bali.
INVOLVE OUR EMPLOYEES AND PARTNERS Expand our coastal and waterway clean-up operations each year on World Clean Up Day, by mobilizing all THALGO employees and our partners around the world.
THALGO CLEANUP CHALLENGES 2023 ~ 6 collection operations worldwide ~ 230 THALGO employees ~ 18 km of sea coastline and banks of rivers were cleaned up ~ 17 m3 of waste and more than 4,000 cigarette ends were collected, i.e. 2,000 m3 of seawater preserved
