gyreistä

Gyreistä is a Finnish environmental organization that focuses on marine conservation and pollution. Founded in 1990, the non-profit organization is headquartered in Helsinki, Finland. Gyreistä's primary mission is to protect the Baltic Sea and its surrounding ecosystems from the impacts of pollution, especially from plastic waste and microplastics.

The organization's name, "Gyreistä," is derived from the Finnish word for "from the gyre," referring to the massive oceanic garbage patches found in the world's oceans. Gyreistä's work involves research, education, and advocacy to raise awareness about marine pollution and its effects on the environment and human health.

Gyreistä's main areas of focus include:

* Researching and monitoring marine pollution, including the impact of microplastics on marine life

* Educating the public and policymakers about the importance of marine conservation and pollution prevention

* Advocating for policy changes and regulations to reduce marine pollution and promote sustainable practices

Gyreistä has been involved in several high-profile initiatives, including the "Break Free From Plastic" movement and the " EU Strategy on Plastics." The organization has also collaborated with governments, businesses, and other NGOs to develop solutions for reducing marine pollution.

Throughout its history, Gyreistä has worked to raise awareness about the importance of marine conservation and the need to prevent pollution. The organization continues to be an active voice in the global conversation about ocean health and sustainability.
