Happy World Oceans Day friends! For those of you interested in learning more about how this day came to be, check out this blog post. I'm heading to the beach this afternoon for a visit with my family and I can't help but be incredibly grateful to have grown up so close to the ocean. It certainly has been a part of my world for a while now and I wouldn't have it any other way. 

Here are a few cool things to celebrate this World Oceans Day:

United By Blue announced their addicted to plastic campaign on the 6th opening the eyes of their shoppers as well as companies worldwide. They were transparent with just how much plastic they use even with sustainably made products and added that by World Oceans Day 2020, they will be working to eliminate the following plastics from their company: ​
  • Individual poly bags
  • Master poly bags
  • Swift tags
  • Bubble bags
  • Trim bags
  • Fabric/BisonShield rolls
  • Binder sleeves
  • Plastic shrink wrap
  • Plastic tape
I'd say, that's pretty damn awesome. Join their #QuitSingleUse pledge by visiting their website!

Simply Straws is celebrating World Oceans Day with free shipping all day today. They have glass straws, metal straws, straws for bubble tea, utensil kits, and more. Use promo 1STRAW4THEOCEANS for free shipping (today only).

Beach cleanups are happening worldwide all day long. Can't make it to one? No problem! Bring a small trash bag with you on your travels today. If you see trash, pick some up. Stop the problem before it gets to the ocean. 

I love our ocean and I'm happy to help keep it safe.
