How To Help Clean The Oceans.

By Richard Obioma


 1. Educate yourself and others:-

It's hard to clean  up the Ocean without knowing why and it gets polluted in the first place.  So the first step is to get informed. Learn how your plastic water bottle winds up in the Ocean in the first place, or how it affects the water bodies. The best way to begin your ocean advocacy is to know the how's and why's.



2. Cut Down on Plastic Use:-

There are many reasons to cut down on the plastic you use every day,  but if you want to do your part for the ocean, then it's  important to put it into perspective. It's possible that around 8 million tons of plastic get into our oceans every year, harming plant life, water quality, marine animals around the globe.
Single-use plastics are among the most wasteful, but they're also the easiest change you can make to your lifestyle. Instead of buying single-use plastic water bottles in bulk, switch to reusable you can fill up again and again.

3. Volunteer Your Time To Clean up:-

Organizing your own cleanup in your community is a great idea. First, talk to local politicians and community groups to see if there's an existing ocean effort in your area.  If not go through those channels to help organize one. This is a great way to get friends, family, strangers and schools involve to beautify the community and to help teach positive  habits when it comes to maintaining  a cleaner ocean.
