The Small but Big Difference Made by Using Discarded Fishing Nets

25% - The amount of carbon emissions that can be reduced if discarded fishing nets are used when producing 1 metric ton of plastics* 120trees - Producing products using discarded fishing nets is equivalent to planting 120 30-year-old pine trees**
