Zara (15) & Ashton (14) are siblings who started Hidden Plastic in 2020 "because we're very concerned about the global plastic problem...especially those we don't always see like microplastics." They're using their creativity and voices to help highlight the biggest and smallest issues of the global plastics problem.
