Have you read our Ocean Wise Plastics Lab microfiber report? This report found that putting your washing machine on the ‘gentle’ cycle can reduce microfiber shedding by approximately 70%. Imagine – such a simple change that we can make every time we wash our clothes can have such a huge impact. Our action today is to turn the dial and set your washing machine to its gentle setting!

Ocean Wise is based in the traditional and unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We work across Turtle Island and beyond, supporting Indigenous peoples in their vital work on ocean conservation and biodiversity whenever possible or as we are invited to.
