Why was 11th June, 2024 an important date?! Because on that day, there were only 2030 days left until 1 January, 2030?! And why does that matter, you might well ask?!
Well, 2030 is the year in which we are due to have achieved all of the #SDGs, or UN Sustainable Development Goals. These are the 17 big targets agreed by all UN members back in 2015, created with the aim of achieving "peace and prosperity for people and the planet - while tackling climate change and working to preserve oceans and forests”. It is clear that each and every one of those SDGs is a “Big Ask”! The argument in favour of having BHAG’s is that they better mobilise and motivate everyone “to reach for the sky”, and in that way we will ultimately achieve more than if we had set more limited “reasonable” goals. Pinovo marked 11th June, 2024, and the remaining 2030 days left until 2030, by participating at the seminar #Wakeup2030 hosted by Inventas that shone a light on the solutions, like Pinovo's that have been developed to help us achieve the SDG’s. Pinovo is focused on and driven by SDG14 - Life below water - which aims to protect and ensure the sustainable use of oceans. We have developed and patented Clean Blasting Technology that Stops Paint Microplastic Emissions. In that way, we are playing our part to Protect Ocean Health, because….#PaintIsPlastic! The seminar was a great opportunity to remind ourselves why the SDG’s really matter, why we should be positive and optimistic about our capacity to have an impact on them, and why we must keep our eye on the prize of achieving the SDG's.

Introducing you to the "Godfather of Microplastics", Professor RICHARD THOMPSON OBE FRS, who first used the term "Microplastic" in the journal Science 20 years ago this year, and who is a scientific lodestar for Pinovo. Richard's important work and impact in this field has been justly recognised by his inclusion in the TIME 100 Health - follow this link to access the article - https://time.com/6968344/richard-thompson/. And that important work goes on! Richard is now a key player in the ongoing negotiations of the UN Global Plastics Treaty. He is part of the Steering Committee and Coordinator Team of the Scientists' Coalition for an Effective Plastics Treaty - a network of independent scientific and technical experts who provide scientific knowledge to those involved in the negotiations. Follow this link - https://lnkd.in/eTghSggj - to read about an interesting conversation with Richard explaining his journey over the last 20 years, and why his research on Microplastics matters to all of us. We know that Paint is the biggest source of those Microplastic Emissions to the Environment, according to the EU Commission, The Pew Charitable Trusts and EA - Earth Action, because #PaintIsPlastic. We at Pinovo, with our in-house developed and patented Clean Blasting Technology, play our part in stopping those Paint Microplastic Emissions to Protect Ocean Health.  Congratulations 🙌 to our Robotics 🤖 Partner, Remotion AS for the great profile which they were given on NRK, Norwegian National Television 📺! Robotic Surface Treatment Solutions marry productivity, operator safety and sustainability advantages. They deliver cleaner, safer, and more cost efficient solutions for customers. And they stop Paint Microplastics to protect Ocean Health! What's not to like about all of that?! Remotion AS We had the incredible opportunity to welcome NRK to our office yesterday, where we shared the remarkable growth story of Remotion and showcased our groundbreaking robot technology. 🤖✨ The energy in the oil industry is at an all-time high, and the interest in our innovations is booming! It's truly inspiring to see how our solutions are making waves and attracting attention from key players in the field. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the boundaries and drive innovation forward! https://lnkd.in/g8aDXt4p https://tv.nrk.no/se?v=NNFA19060324  UN World Oceans Day is officially 8th June, but is marked this year by a big UN event on Friday 7th June. The powerful 💪 short video below👇 shows just why the Ocean 🌊 matters to all of us, and how you can register for the virtual event. At Pinovo we play our part in Protecting Ocean Health by Stopping Paint Microplastics with our Clean Blasting Technology, because, as you know,.....#PaintIsPlastic! https://youtu.be/CdPQLsq9biU?feature=shared  |
