Did you know the ocean produces over 50% of the oxygen we breathe and absorbs 30% of the CO₂ we emit?

It’s the planet’s true-blue lung! In addition, they regulate the climate.

But plastic pollution, overfishing and climate change are threatening this delicate balance.

An effective way to counteract the damage is to reduce the use of single-use plastics, which are the main cause of marine pollution. Use reusable bags instead of plastic bags, carry your reusable water bottle, and say no to disposable cutlery and straws.

80% of plastic waste in the ocean comes from land-based activities. By reducing its use at home, at markets, and at events, we help stop pollution at its source.
