A race agains sea pollution A love of the sea is at the heart of what we do. Sailors live from and for the sea. The water we drink comes from the ocean, only filtered by the desalinating water maker. We keep our trash bags sealed inside the boat and shower in the rain. Our vulnerability to the natural elements is total. That is why we go out there. But one of the things we’re suffering the most from is not natural. Rather, it's the opposite. We’ve seen plastic bottles, styrofoam, plastic bags, Crocs, and balloons, pretty much everything including a garden table. The pollution in our sea is pretty unreal and tragic. The zer°emission project works to inspire sailors, race fans, our partners and race host cities to join us in our quest for cleaner seas. We will work with each of our race host cities throughout 2019-2020 program striving to impact, influence and change views on marine sustainability during our stay and over the media.
