Meet Vanessa.

For Vanessa, the ocean is more than just water—it’s life. Living by a canal in Itaguaí, Rio de Janeiro, she has watched plastic waste flow relentlessly toward the sea, threatening the waters her family depends on.

But instead of looking away, she took action. Inspired by her mother’s recycling efforts, Vanessa and her husband, Márcio, began collecting plastic waste, turning it into a source of income when fish sales declined during the pandemic.

Her earnings help put food on the table, and the additional benefits she receives, like grocery support, have lifted some of the daily burdens her family faces. But the most meaningful moment came when she was able to afford medicine for her son at a time when they had no other options.
