Reduce Ocean Plastic
We are turning our beautiful ocean into a big plastic soup. More than 8 million tonnes enter the sea every year and the numbers keeps growing as more humans inhabit our earth. Our mismanagement of waste is causing animals like birds and sea life to die by entanglement or poisoning and even leading to chemical contamination of the fish we eat. The vast islands of garbage or plastic in the ocean just shows us a scratch of the surface of how this type of pollution affects our water and marine life, and in the end us!
By signing this petition you are standing up for what makes up 70% of our home! You are also agreeing to make an effort to reduce reuse and recycle as much as possible in hopes of making a difference in our plastic waste usage.
