Why this petition matters

Started by Ocean Crusaders

In today's day and age, there is no excuse for any debris heading to sea.  We are asking individuals, corporations and governments of all levels to make a pledge to stop all DEBRIS heading to the SEA.  

It starts at the shop by chosing items that are packaged wisely.  This can be done by every individual across the world.  If we don't consume it, it can't go to the sea.  Individuals are also asked to join local clean ups or pick things up when on your walks.  It's a little effort but with many, we can make a difference.  

Corporations are asked to change their buying habits, ensure their work place is disposing of rubbish in the correct manner, recycling when they can, and consuming less.  Corporate volunteer days can also be used to clean up our parks, waterways and beaches preventing debris heading to the sea.  

And of course we need government at all levels and in all countries to make a commitment that no Debris goes to the Sea.  Street cleaning, collection devices at street level or in the waterways, we must do more to prevent debris escaping to the sea.  

So will you sign up to make a difference.  Our mission is to garner so much support at the individual level that corporations will want to join in too and then that puts pressure on the governments.  

If successful we will take this to the UN.  We have emissions targets, why not have a zero Debris to Sea target?
