#DidYouKnow monthly giving is one of the most impactful ways to support Raincoast? Just $10 / month can contribute to the upkeep of our research drones for photogrammetry, helping us measure whale health from the air. 🐋 Join the community: www.raincoast.org/2025/10/impo...

Happy solstice everyone! The days are getting longer now. (For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere.)

Microfibre pollution affects all Canadian environments — and it's on us to act. Ocean Diagnostics, Raincoast, and Environment Canada have released a report on the national and global state of microfibre pollution and solutions we can all take to reduce microfibre pollution. #cdnpoli #microplastics
Illustrated map of Canada showing how research on microfibres from all parts of Canada demonstrate that microfibres dominate microplast pollution in Canada.
