All One Ocean
Rose Chalfin-Wakeley's Company Details
The health of our water is at stake. Our ocean and waterways are continually polluted by single-use items, discarded fishing gear, and other plastics. These items leach toxic chemicals into the water we drink and into the ocean that many creatures call home. When trash, litter, and other pollution is not disposed of correctly, it emits methane gas, a contributor to climate change. It also impacts living organisms in our ocean that help reduce carbon. As these items fill our ocean and waterways, animals get tangled in them and/or mistake them for food, which threatens food chains and affects the health of our water. All One Ocean is at the forefront of changing this through education and providing simple, everyday solutions that allow everyone to make a difference.These inspiring, community-driven programs empower schoolchildren and other community members to become environmental leaders and stewards. Each of these programs educate schoolchildren and beachgoers about marine pollution and enable them to reduce their use of single-use plastics and disposable items and make positive, sustainable everyday living choices that enhance the vitality of our Ocean ecosystem, protect marine life, beautify our beaches and improve human health.
