This is the first time our Remote Marine Debris Crew have tackled the extreme challenge of removing FADs – a specific type of ghost fishing gear, constructed from ropes, nets, and buoys.
Posing a deadly risk to precious marine life, our dedicated crew worked incredibly hard during this recent campaign, removing 2 tonnes of fishing gear from our ocean!
