Amsterdam, the capital of The Netherlands, is for those abroad known for its canals in the center of the city. The canal system is the result of conscious city planning.

In addition the canals are one of the city’s most touristic attractions. You probably already know a few facts about these canals. There are, however, a certain fact you probably didn’t know (yet)…

More and more plastic is floating in our oceans and seas. It comes from rubbish that we throw away on the street, fishnets that are discarded, and from washing synthetic clothing and brushing our teeth. All these different types of plastic together form the plastic soup in the seas and oceans.
