Here’s the Truth…

80% of the world’s ocean pollution is from land based sources, meaning the trash on our beaches in directly hurting marine life. (and human health!)
Annually, 11 to 23 million metric tons of plastic enter Earth’s oceans.
This is the equivalent of dumping 2,000 garbage trucks full of plastic into the sea every single day.

As caretakers of this planet, we all need to do our part, no matter how small. Making a sign can be your first step to help keep your local beaches clean!
