“More plastic than fish. That's a scary thought, and one that I'm not sure people fully understand."

 Professional athlete, Isabella Bertold, is set to transfer between SailGP Saint Tropez and SailGP Cadiz by road bike. She splits her season between road bike racing with InstaFund Pro Cycling, and on the water as one of the strategists for the Canada SailGP Team.

 "When I was racing on the Olympic circuit in sailing, I don't know if I was aware of the impact I had while racing. I noticed trash in the water, but didn't appreciate how my equipment, travel, and everyday purchases contributed to the waste I was seeing in the water. Now that I have a better understanding of the issue, it's hard not to notice trash on the side of the road while riding - and it's that trash that ultimately ends up in the ocean.”

 When the SailGP calendar was released, Bertold saw an opportunity to share her journey between two race venues, while also bringing awareness to how our daily actions leave a lasting impact on our coastlines and ocean habitats.

"It's easy to think that the little things don't matter, but the little things like removing plastic from packaging, using a reusable coffee cup, and thinking about the materials your clothing is made from, well, those little things add up and make a big impact. They are also the low hanging fruit in solving the greater problem."
