OUR OCEAN, OUR FUTURE

Beach & Bandits loves the beach and the ocean. A few years ago we heard about the "Plastic Soup". More and more plastic waste ends up in our oceans and seas. The effects of weathering, sunlight and wave action reduce this plastic to smaller particles. This leads to serious pollution. The Plastic Soup Foundation wants to put an end to the increasing pollution of the seas and oceans. They want to prevent more plastic from entering the sea in the future. With our "Our ocean, our future" collection we support the Plastic Soup Foundation by donating 25% of every purchase. Thanks to your purchases, we have been able to donate more than €12,000 in recent years to support their mission.

By taking our children to the beach and bringing them into contact with nature, we can teach our children how to contribute to a cleaner world. We can teach them from an early age how important their decisions, actions and choices are when it comes to helping save the oceans. The problem is big, but the solution is simple. The less plastic we use, the less will ultimately end up in the sea. That is why below you will find 5 tips that will help you use less plastic and reduce the entry of plastic into the ocean.

We kunnen hen al vanaf jonge leeftijd leren hoe belangrijk hun keuzes en acties zijn in het beschermen van de oceanen. Het probleem is groot, maar de oplossing is simpel: hoe minder plastic we gebruiken, hoe minder er uiteindelijk in de zee belandt.
