4Ocean - Bracelets for a Good Cause

More than 8 million tons of waste end up in the oceans each year, which poses a serious threat to our oceans and marine life. Sea turtles and fish routinely get tangled in plastic bags and suffer a horrible death. On top of that, there are fish that mistake plastic debris for plankton and eat it. If nothing changes, there will be more plastic than fish in the oceans by 2050.

Fighting Plastic Pollution

4Ocean is a global organization that aims to clean the world’s oceans of plastic waste. Everybody is welcome to help and contribute to this project. With the help of numerous dedicated volunteers, they have already pulled over 3993 tons of trash from the ocean and coastlines to date.

The 4Ocean team and their cleanup crews collect the trash from the coastlines before it has a chance to enter the ocean. They also have a fleet of boats cleaning the ocean seven days a week. Thousands of people worldwide support the organization in their work to leave the oceans a bit cleaner every day.

70% of the waste that enters the ocean sinks to the seafloor if it is not collected.

The Effects of Plastic Waste in the Oceans:

More than 90% of all the plastic waste that reaches the world’s oceans is carried there by rivers. The trash gets flushed into the rivers by rain and from there it is washed into the ocean. The mass production of throw-away products and lack of recycling awareness in many countries will continue to aggravate the situation.

Plastic waste contributes to climate change

Under the influence of sunlight, plastic waste releases greenhouse gases that contribute to warming the planet. This creates a vicious circle, because as the planet’s temperature rises, the plastic releases even more greenhouse gases.

Threat to the global food chain

Micro-plastics have been found in tap water, bottled water, fish and mussel tissue and even in beer.

Impacts on human health

In areas with poor or nonexistent waste disposal, people have to live amidst heaps of trash - which inevitably leads to the spread of epidemics and diseases.

Destruction of the environment

Animals get tangled in plastic trash, or they eat it, with fatal consequences. Some species are even headed toward extinction due to plastic pollution in the ocean.

Destruction of ecosystems

Those who rely on the sea and its resources for their livelihood are acutely threatened by plastic pollution. Many communities are losing their fishing grounds altogether.

4Ocean’s Solution

The 4Ocean organization tries to deal with the problem of ocean plastic pollution by collecting the plastic waste out of the ocean and recycling it.

1 Bracelet = 1 Pound of Trash Removed from the Ocean

4Ocean sells bracelets that are made from 100% recycled materials. Every bracelet bought funds the removal of one pound of trash from the ocean and coastlines and symbolizes your commitment to cleaner oceans. 4Ocean aims to raise awareness of various environmental issues. By working tirelessly towards oceans free of plastic, they try to bring about a shift in environmental thinking and encourage the public to get involved.
