    As a consequence of the vast amount of plastic that has been pouring into marine habitats for

decades, the world’s oceans are now on the verge of collapse. Because of the urgency to foster

positive change in a situation where no escape seems possible, Plastic Ocean: Art and Science

Responses to Marine Pollution offers an interdisciplinary perspective by including the arts and

a wide range of disciplines, sounding the alarm about this developing crisis. In recent decades,

artists have joined forces with scientists to advance the necessary mobilization and have teamed

up with environmental activists, philosophers, and curators to become eco activists raising

awareness about this imminent environmental disaster and the future conflicts it will create.
