A travelling interactive exhibit now on display outside Ottawa's Canadian Museum of Nature lets attendees take a deep dive into the plastic waste threatening the world's oceans and marine life.
The Ocean Plastics Lab was created in Germany as part of a G7 Action Plan in the fight against marine pollution, and debuted in Italy in 2017.
It's housed in four shipping containers loaded with hands-on scientific equipment, interactive video players, and of course, lots and lots of plastic garbage — bottles, bags, toys and fishing equipment — found on beaches and dredged from the sea.
