Brunei UK Beach Run · 23 November 2019

Ocean Generation is a UK-based environmental charity that improves Ocean Literacy by translating complex Ocean science into engaging content, programmes and practical actions. Most people grow up unaware that the Ocean is keeping us all alive: Ocean Generation exists to change that.

Story

As British High Commissioner in Brunei I have been captivated by the beauty of Brunei's coastline.  But it, and the world's oceans, are at risk of being ruined by plastic pollution.  So I hope to draw attention to this by attempting to be the first person to run the full 136km of Brunei's coast. I am being supported by the Brunei and British military - a celebration of our very close ties. 

Plastic Oceans UK have been experts on plastic pollution for nearly a decade. This began with the award-winning documentary A Plastic Ocean, now available for streaming on Netflix.Each year an extra eight million tonnes of plastic enters the ocean. By supporting Plastic Oceans, you're facilitating education, science and sustainability programmes that will create a wave of change. Through changing attitudes, behaviours and practices on the use and value of plastics, we can stop plastic pollution reaching the ocean within a generation.
