Plastic vs Plankton! It is definitely time to act!!

Click here to see the movie by Captain Charles Moore, founder of the Algalita Marine Research Foundation, an organization dedicated to studying and raising awareness about the levels of plastic polluting our world's oceans.

Below is another place to learn more about the impact of plastic right here in the Pacific....from our neighbours in Hawaii!

More and more we hear about the environmental impact of plastic but most of us are not taking real action. "Message in the Waves" explains, from an Hawaiin perspective, the impact ocean trash is having on the marine environment and all the way up the food chain to humans. We need to act now!

The first video introduces you to "Message in the Waves". On the right hand side of the webpage are the other video clips telling the story of plastification of the sea and all that lives or relies on it. This is a hard hitting documentary and certainly highlights the need for everyone, including every New Zealander, to act now. Please watch and learn!

Roadside debris ends up in the sea.

Every time it rains our harbours and coastline are filled with plastics, oils and other waste. We must all deal with our waste correctly! (YES...we all need to think about this, from here in New Zealand and all around the world)

Reduce what goes down the drains, cigarette ash and butts, plastic packaging, vehicle exhaust residue and everything else we throw or dispose of down our drains all leads to the ocean - Our Ocean! Everyone must act and take care of their impact on the planet, our life source!

DID YOU KNOW! The ocean, Our Ocean, provides more than half of the clean and essential air we breathe!

Remember - All drains lead to the sea.
