about the Bracenet

• They are one of the biggest dangers for our oceans: fishing nets that have snapped off or intentionally been thrown away. These so-called ghost nets can drift around for decades without control across the seas and are a deadly trap for many animals. Each year many million marine animals die in torturous manner in these ghost nets. These include: dolphins, seals, tortoises, sharks, sea birds and countless types of fish.

• "With Bracenet we want to take assertive action and publicly take a stance. Together with the renowned ocean protection organization Healthy Seas we retrieve these deadly traps, clean them and produce in craftsmanship a bracelet – the Bracenet."
