POLLUTION
HABITAT LOSS
OVERFISHING
CLIMATE CHANGE
Our planet needs clean oceans. The oceans give us life – the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat – but more than that, they give us a life worth living for!
Marine debris and plastics in particular have been described as some of the greatest environmental concerns of our times, along with climate change, ocean acidification and loss of biodiversity. It is estimated that if marine plastics pollution remains unabated, there will be more plastics in the oceans than fish by 2050 – that’s only 30 years away!
Please consider purchasing our merchandise! All profits support marine conservation projects and engage more people to join the fight against marine debris!
Polution
11 million tons of plastic enter the ocean every year — the equivalent of a garbage truck every minute.
Habitat Loss
1.2 million species are at risk of extinction due to habitat destruction and human activity (UN estimate).
Overfishing
Over 90% of the world’s fish stocks are either fully exploited or overfished (FAO, UN).
Climate Change
50% of coral reefs have been lost since 1950 — with bleaching events now five times more frequent due to ocean warming.
