A lack of imagination got us into this mess. Creativity and collaboration can lead us out.
No one wakes up in the morning and sets out to destroy the oceans, but somehow, through our everyday choices, we all contribute to the destruction. One of the biggest threats to the health and stability of our life support system is a design flaw introduced about 65 years ago: plastic. Plastic never biodegrades, it never goes away. It's polluting the oceans, killing sea life, entering the food web, and poisoning our own bodies and bloodstreams. The oceans give us life. In return, we give them plastic. We can turn this around.
We all have a role to play in the solution. Take the pledge and create your personalized badge to start owning yours.
