The video discusses the impact of marine pollution on wildlife and the tourism industry, highlighting the research of Dutch biologist Jan Andres Vonfranica. By studying seabirds, Vonfranica tracks pollution in the North Sea, revealing significant plastic waste. The European Union supports this research, aiming to expand it and raise awareness among industries. Efforts include encouraging fishermen to bring ashore litter caught in nets.
