50% of the plastic we use is used once and thrown away. Plastic accounts for roughly 10% of all the garbage on the planet. Roughly 8 million tons of plastic is dumped into the world's oceans every year. It takes between 500 –1000 years for plastic to degrade. One million seabirds and 100.000 mammals die a slow death every year from oceanic plastic waste that they have mistaken for food and eaten. It is called “Death by Plastic”. Today, the majority of the world’s oceanic plastic waste comes from just five countries, and Thailand is one of them, contributing over one thousand tons per year. I want us to change that.

How to make people listen?

Well, nobody listens to me. I don't even speak Thai fluently. But I have friends that people do listen to. So I invited them along, to photograph them in places that are important to show, so people will understand and learn. With your help I will invite more celebrities who will lend their fame and social media power for free, to highlight this important issue. We will go to other places in Thailand that tells the bigger story of plastic waste. We will share our journey on social media through a series of mini documentaries, so everyone can see.

We need to go 7 more places, with 7 more celebrities, and 400.000 THB to get it done. I will continue to work for free. Donations will cover transport, fuel, tickets, sometimes payment to people that can take us to the locations, filming and editing the documentaries, and finally to print the photographic artworks to be exhibited around Thailand.

I hope you will help make Thailand a better place to live. And the world healthier for both humans and animals, by supporting Death by Plastic. Thank you for your time, and kindness.
