Temporary Exhibition: The Plastic Sea

“The plastic sea” is a traveling exhibition that highlights the serious issue of marine plastic pollution, urging critical reflection on its impact on the oceans and the pressing need to promote a circular economy. Through creative and scientific approaches, the exhibition encourages responsible resource use and material reuse. It features the “ABIOCONPLAS” project by the Museum of Natural Sciences of Tenerife, which emphasizes the vulnerability of plankton to plastics in Macaronesia and its crucial role in ecosystems. After visiting cities such as Valencia, Madrid, and Barcelona, the exhibition arrives in Tenerife with a clear message: protecting the seas is essential to preserving life on Earth.
