"The core concept really is that everything that gets discharged to the sewer, ends up in the environment, in one way or another" (Andrew Crimston, Founder and CEO of Washbox Global)


Chemical pollution in the ocean tends to be much less talked about than the highly visible plastics pollution, but is as equally, if not even more harmful. Back to Blue have published a comprehensive 100-page report on the state of marine chemical pollution in “The Invisible Wave”. This episode will give a deep-dive into marine chemical pollution in the construction industry. Back to Blue's lead editor Naka Kondo speaks to Andrew Crimston, Founder and CEO of Washbox Global.
