‘Plastic soup’ is a term that is frequently used in relation to climate change and by now everyone is familiar with what it mean: the streams of plastic litter in our seas and oceans. Plastic doesn’t belong in our water and solutions are desperately needed, such as recycling and less consumption of plastic. In our NHL Stenden canteens we do our bit and we have gone entirely plastic free.
Teaching & Research
Healthy and liveable seas and oceans are critical to the world around us and we all have to (continue to) work hard(er) to achieve that goal. It’s a challenge that we at NHL Stenden are keen to take on, which is why the issue of ‘Life below water’ feature prominently in our education and research.
