Nancy Cantine is performing stunts to combat plastic ocean pollution
If you like watching TV or movies, you might have unknowingly seen Nancy crash through a glass table, roller skate for actresses, or get set on fire 🔥 Nancy is a NYC/LA based stuntwoman, and she loves making action sequences brutal and wild.
When she's not being that particular variety of awesome, she's a partner on Sailing to Save the Ocean, helping combat plastic ocean pollution and keeping our oceans sustainable, wild, and beautiful.

What if you could help solve this environmental catastophe?
It's estimated that each year 16 billion pounds of plastic flow into the oceans from polluted rivers, shipping accidents, and many other sources. There is a sensational derivation of this estimate that has made headlines:
By 2050, there will be more plastic in the oceans than fish 🐠
It's a massive environmental catastrophe that we are only beginning to measure and understand. It took a generation to cause it, and it is likely going to take a generation to fix it. Let's get started! There are many aspects to the solution:
We are contributing by running a small, fun, adventurous, and tactical project with the potential to make a big splash, with your help!
Nancy, along with Innovation Bound and Clean Oceans International is helping run mission-based sailing expeditions!
There is a lot of work to do to clean up the plastic pollution in our oceans. Research needs to be conducted to understand the extent of the problem, clean up and prevention methods need to be developed for different parts of the plastic problem, and a lot more people need to understand the severity of the situation. We are ready to raise awareness and take action!
Clean Oceans International has been pioneering the use of plastic-to-fuel conversion technology which removes incentives to dump plastic into the ocean. They've been running education campaigns with various universities and schools, and have conducted research trips in multiple oceans.
The expeditions that Nancy and others will be joining are set to visit remote coastlines to assess plastic pollution quantity and variety, they'll visit remote communities and demonstrate plastic-to-fuel recycling innovations (this must work for the local community, so we're ready to listen, not just force our approach), and we're ready to make these mission fun, entertaining, and informative so we can spread the message far and wide!
We are just a humble vessel with some innovative tech and a misfit crew. Will you support our voyage and help us set sail?
