This project aims to provide scientifically verified methods to avoid, intercept and redesign products that cause the most abundant type of marine plastic pollution – clothing fibres - which has increased by over 450% in 60 years. It will determine how natural and plastic fibres, clothing brands and washing machine filters, alter fibre emissions and ecological impacts. This will enable protocols to improve products and the environment, and reduce health risks that will benefit the public, government regulation and companies in designing "eco-friendly" products.

该项目旨在提供经过科学验证的方法，以避免、拦截和重新设计导致最丰富的海洋塑料污染类型的产品——服装纤维——在60年内增加了450%以上。它将决定天然纤维和塑料纤维、服装品牌和洗衣机过滤器如何改变纤维排放和生态影响。这将使协议能够改进产品和环境，并减少健康风险，这将有利于公众、政府监管机构和设计“生态友好”产品的公司。
