It takes a village to protect the ocean even though ocean conservation can sometimes feel lonely. Leaning on your community can help to inspire you to take more action for the sea. In this episode of the "How to Protect the Ocean" podcast, host Andrew Luan emphasizes the vital role of community in ocean conservation efforts. He discusses how protecting the ocean can feel overwhelming for individuals, especially when faced with complex issues like climate change, overfishing, and plastic pollution. However, community involvement can transform this daunting task into a collective effort, providing support, knowledge, and motivation. Key points include: Shared Knowledge: Communities offer access to valuable resources and experiences. Learning from others who have successfully navigated local challenges can enhance individual effectiveness in advocacy. Accountability and Motivation: Being part of a group fosters accountability. When individuals work alongside others, they are less likely to give up, as they can draw inspiration from each other's successes. Amplifying Voices: A united community can significantly amplify individual voices. Collective action, such as signing petitions or attending public meetings, can lead to substantial changes that one person alone might not achieve. Finding Your Community: Andrew encourages listeners to seek out local organizations, clubs, and online groups focused on ocean conservation. Engaging actively and bringing value to these communities is essential for personal growth and collective impact. Upcoming Online Community: Andrew announces the launch of a new online community aimed at supporting individuals in becoming better advocates for the ocean. This platform will provide opportunities for connection, learning, and action. Overall, the episode highlights that protecting the ocean is a shared responsibility that thrives in a supportive community, where individuals can find purpose, strength, and inspiration to continue their efforts despite challenges.

Mind your plastic pollution is a conversation that we all need to have because we all partake in using single-use plastic as the system is set up that way.  In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin engages in a conversation with Natasha Tucker, the Executive Director of Mind Your Plastic, a Canadian charity focused on eliminating plastic pollution. The discussion centers around the pervasive issue of plastic in our environment, emphasizing the need for behavioral change among individuals and businesses to reduce our dependence on plastics. Key points from the episode include: Understanding Plastic Pollution: The episode highlights how plastic is ubiquitous in our lives, affecting not only our oceans but also our health and the environment. The conversation underscores the importance of recognizing the impact of plastic pollution on both a local and global scale. Behavioral Change: Natasha emphasizes that changing consumer habits is crucial. Many people are resistant to altering their behaviors, often clinging to convenience over sustainability. The episode discusses how small actions, such as opting for reusable items instead of single-use plastics, can lead to significant changes over time. Education and Awareness: The importance of education in fostering awareness about plastic pollution is a recurring theme. Natasha shares her journey of engaging with the public through beach cleanups and educational programs, which not only help clean the environment but also inspire others to reconsider their consumption habits. Targeted Messaging: The episode discusses the need for tailored messaging to connect with different audiences. For instance, when speaking to businesses, focusing on the financial benefits of reducing plastic use can be more effective than solely discussing environmental impacts. This approach helps to align sustainability with economic incentives. Community Engagement: Natasha shares experiences from community cleanups, illustrating how direct involvement can lead to a greater understanding of the issue. Engaging with the community fosters a sense of responsibility and encourages individuals to take action against plastic pollution. Policy and Advocacy: The conversation touches on the role of policy in addressing plastic pollution. Natasha explains how Mind Your Plastic advocates for stronger regulations and works with businesses to find sustainable alternatives to plastic. In conclusion, the episode emphasizes that reducing our dependence on plastic pollution requires a collective effort involving education, community engagement, and a willingness to change behaviors. By making conscious choices and advocating for better policies, individuals can contribute to a healthier environment and a more sustainable future.

The coastal town of Rodanthe, North Carolina is just a small spot on the map, but it's a big place in the hearts of the people who live, own property, and vacation there. Located along Cape Hatteras National Seashore, Rodanthe has been in the national spotlight because of a succession of houses that have fallen into the Atlantic Ocean due to beach erosion. There have been ten houses affected in the past four years, and five this year alone.  As the Traveler and other national media outlets have reported, every time a beach house succumbs to the sea, it creates a massive debris field that is carried down the shore for miles, posing serious hazards to people, flora and fauna alike. Residents have described the phenomenon as a slow-motion hurricane.  In addition to the ongoing discussions about other at-risk houses, there is the very real issue of cleanup. The National Park Service brings in contractors who take out debris in truckloads, but that doesn't mean that local residents are just standing idly by. Recently Traveler correspondent Kim O'Connell had the pleasure of interviewing local Tom Brueckner the day before he was set to join a group of residents to do a big beach cleanup as part of the National Park Service's newly launched Adopt-A-Beach program.

Dit jaar vindt alweer de 11e editie van de Boscalis Beach Cleanup Tour plaats, waarbij ook aandacht uitgaat naar de stranden op Goeree-Overflakkee.

Fresh from my trip to Kauai, I am talking this week about the importance of taking the Aloha Pledge and my experience with a recent Beach cleanup. The Aloha Pledge was initiated as a collaborative effort to promote responsible tourism and environmental stewardship in Hawaii. It emerged from the broader mission of Kanu Hawaii, an organization founded in 2006 with the aim of fostering a connection to the land ('āina), Native Hawaiian culture, and sustainable local practices. Kanu Hawaii started as a grassroots movement focusing on various community-centric initiatives. Over the years, the organization has launched several campaigns to enhance civic engagement, food sustainability, and energy independence, always rooted in the values of aloha and kuleana (responsibility). In 2021, Kanu Hawaii introduced the "Pledge To Our Keiki" in partnership with the Hawaii Department of Education, aimed at instilling a sense of environmental responsibility in students across all public and charter schools in Hawaii. Hawaii is a paradise renowned for its stunning natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and the spirit of aloha that permeates daily life. To ensure that this paradise is preserved for future generations, visitors are encouraged to take the Aloha Pledge before embarking on their journey. This pledge is more than a symbolic gesture; it is a commitment to respect, protect, and learn from the Hawaiian environment and culture. Aloha Bruce at Beach Cleanup on Kauai Understanding the Aloha Pledge The Aloha Pledge is a set of guidelines designed to foster responsible and respectful tourism. By signing the pledge, visitors agree to: Live the Spirit of Aloha: Embrace kindness, respect, and cooperation in all interactions. Respect the Environment: Avoid feeding marine life, stay off the reef, and use reef-safe sunscreens to protect the ocean and its inhabitants. Honor Cultural Practices: Give space to fishermen, use legal accommodations, and respect local customs and private property. Promote Sustainability: Clean and decontaminate gear to prevent the spread of invasive species, avoid geo-tagging special places, and minimize waste by using reusable containers and supporting local markets. This pledge not only highlights specific actions but also underscores the broader principle of being a responsible and conscientious visitor who respects both the land and its people. Voluntourism: Giving Back to the Land Participating in voluntourism activities, such as beach cleanups, is a tangible way to honor the Aloha Pledge. Beach cleanups help maintain Hawaii's pristine shores and protect marine life from harmful debris. Organizations across Hawaii regularly host these events, inviting locals and tourists alike to contribute to environmental conservation. Voluntourism provides a unique opportunity to connect with the community, learn about local environmental challenges, and make a positive impact. It transforms a vacation into a more meaningful experience, fostering a deeper appreciation for the destination and its preservation. Making a Difference By taking the Aloha Pledge and engaging in voluntourism, visitors can help protect Hawaii's natural beauty and cultural heritage. This commitment ensures that the islands remain a cherished paradise for generations to come.

PORT MANSFIELD, Texas - Several tons of trash was collected during the annual Port Mansfield Cut & Beach Cleanup.Hundreds of volunteers participated in the event Miller and Kathie Bassler began organizing 15 years ago with the idea of keeping the area clean of debris and trash from across the harbor all the way to the cut.Dozens of boats owned by fishing guides, private individuals and from the assistance of a San Benito-based boat dealers, The Sportsman, hit the waters of the Laguna Madre with people on board and who spent several hours walking along both sides of the water way picking up whatever they could find.A lot of the debris consisted of plastic and glass bottles, caps, jugs, shoes of all sorts, old gill nets, vehicle parts and even a truck tire with the rim still attached.Once the trash was collected, it was transferred over two large boats and taken to a dumpster provided by the Port Mansfield Navigation District.Students, parents, and friends all helped with the cleanup.Andrew Butler has been bringing family for a number of years.Two of his daughters, Logan, 11, and Morgan, 13, said they like to contribute because of their love for the outdoors and the wildlife.“We like to help the environment,” Morgan Butler said. “We know harmful plastic is for the sea turtles.”The Millers said everything went well even though attendance was down this time.“We had more than 350 people saying they will be here,” Miller Bassler said. “I would estimate a little more than 250 showed up.”Perhaps one reason that was attributed to the brutal weather and the strong winds pounding the area.But on the day of the event, held Saturday, June 7, the wind came down but the heat started to pick up later in the morning.The Millers got the idea for cleaning the area after Hurricane Ike trashed the same spots people have been cleaning since.That was in July 2008.They said they couldn't let bad weather ruin the places they really enjoy.Several small pockets of sand are frequented by the locals off the water way. So is the beach on both sides of the north jetty.Many of the volunteers come from all the Rio Grande Valley and from as far as Houston and Corpus Christi.The cleanup also is supported by dozens of sponsors that contribute with meals, lodging and supplies for the cleanup.They included local and out-of-own businesses, energy companies, food distributors and many others.To read the new stories and watch the news videos of the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service go to www.riograndeguardian.com.

In this episode, she shares sustainable living tips, easy ways to reduce waste, and how to limit microplastic pollution at home. Hannah also talks about her love of secondhand clothes and furniture, her local Buy Nothing group, and how getting involved with her local community keeps her feeling optimistic about the future.

A quick episode this week shedding some light on the beach cleanup we organized over the weekend! Shocking finds and facts about the pollutants found so commonly around the world, and what we can keep in mind to help ourselves and others to take the right precautions and actions!

Beach clean-up volunteer Des Watson tells Lynn Freeman he believes rubbish that exploded from the landfill near Fox Glacier last March is washing up 200 kms north at Westport. Des has spent the week filling up eight sackfulls of rubbish - mainly plastic and polystyrene - at Nine Mile Beach at Cape Foulwind near Westport, waste he says is typical of the type volunteers like him were picking up and around Okarito last autumn. Meanwhile Westland District mayor Bruce Smith says he's sceptical that rubbish comes from the tip.

In 2017, 20-million pounds of litter was collected around the world on International Coastal Cleanup day. Do beach clean ups actually work? And if not, why do we even do beach cleanups? Are we just wasting our time? Should we be doing something else? This is a podcast about how NOT to save the environment.

This week, I got to meet up with Shell Cleave in Half Moon Bay, California. I had a lovely conversation with Shell about the NGO she founded a year ago, called Sea Hugger. In this conversation, we discuss the reasons that lead Shell to leave working as a freelance Technical Writer for Silicon Valley giants, and to start a non profit from scratch. We talk about what is required to make a legitimate non profit (and be capable of receiving tax exempt donations) and the campaigns Shell is leading with Sea Hugger. Part of Sea Hugger's mission is to raise awareness about the terrifying impact our waste has on the ocean's wildlife. At the end of the day, this absurd cycle affects our own health so we discuss conundrum of offering sustainable solutions in a disposable economy. In this episode, Shell explains what triggered her to leave the corporate world and to launch her own NGO, from the inception of the project to receiving all the legal documents to be legit. She was so happy to find that she had the irrevocable support from the surfing community of Half Moon Bay and likeminded NGOs such as Surfrider San Francisco. Today, Sea Hugger is a grassroots NGO based out of Half Moon Bay but whose mission is to go global. Sea Hugger organises beach cleanups, nurdle counts (you'll find out what a nurdle is in this episode), and school trips for youngsters. They are part of an ambitious campaign against the tobacco industry to force them to make cigarette butts more sustainable and their petition has already gathered 130 000 signatures!  Sea Hugger has sister partnerships with likeminded NGOs around the world. Of course, Shell isn't alone in this adventure : she has managed to attract a crowd of highly motivated volunteers from the surfing community and inhabitants of Half Moon Bay. In this conversation we talk about how waste and plastic waste in particular is EVERYWHERE! How can be avoided in the first place and how we can have a positive impact on our environment.  This is also the story of how determination, ambition and passion can move mountains. We all know the impact plastic is having on our environment, it's just a question of how long will it take for us to change our habits? What's encouraging is that after my conversation with Shell I felt more uplifted than I usually feel when talking about the environment.  It's nice to know that there are plenty of alternatives to our disposable junk and that we should all start by thinking how we're going to be disposing of our plastic containers before we buy them. You can find a list of really cool items that will replace your staples. Thank you Shell for being such an enlightening guest!  To get in touch with Shell, you can reach out to her on seahugger.org , Facebook or on Instagram @sea_hugger.

Bring your friends and family to the island's beaches on Sunday, September 9, and help keep our beaches clean and free of materials that can both damage wildlife and adversely affect our own food chain. The annual beach cleanup is not just happening on Bainbridge; volunteers from states across the U.S. and more than 100 countries come together each year as part of the International Coastal Cleanup. In this podcast Sustainable Bainbridge president Christine Perkins talks with Deb Rudnick, an environmental scientist and chair of the Bainbridge Island Watershed Council, about the many local, national, and international organizations involved in the cleanup, and what we as concerned citizens can do -- not just on Beach Cleanup Day, but every day -- to improve the health and beauty of our environment. Beach cleanup volunteers are encouraged to register in advance of the Sunday event at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70a0944a8ab2aa75-2018.  The main effort is focused from 10am to 2pm on Sunday, September 9th, but your help is appreciated anytime. More information can be found at the Sustainable Bainbridge web page for the event. There's also a Facebook page.

Thousands of volunteers participated in a beach cleanup near Hong Kong's Turtle Cove last May. Environmentalist Robert Lockyer organized the cleanup of Shek Pai Wan, a beach near Turtle Cove, to help endangered green sea turtles that lay their eggs in the area. Over 2,000 volunteers participated in the cleanup. They were able to gather a lot of plastic waste like drinking straws, spoons and forks, toothbrushes, and bags, which are believed to have come from southern China and other parts of Hong Kong. Turtle Cove is one of Hong Kong's regular nesting grounds for green sea turtles. In 1999, the government issued an ordinance that imposed restricted access on beaches like Turtle Cove to make sure that turtles could safely nest. But despite the ordinance, no green sea turtles have been sighted on Turtle Cove since 2012. One of the volunteers said that the turtles do not make it to their nesting ground alive. They either get tangled in fishing nets or die from ingesting plastic that they mistake for food. The situation got worse for the turtles when a collision between two ships near the Chinese mainland spilled palm oil that reached Hong Kong's beaches in 2017. In February, Lockyer co-organized another cleanup to address dirty beaches and marine pollution. The cleanup was done on Tai Wan To beach as part of the preparation for the typhoon season. More than 500 volunteers turned up and collected 1,400 kilograms of waste brought about by last year's Typhoon Hato.

On this week of Sustainable You, the sustainable crew talks about the lack of bugs hitting windshields, the removal of overpopulated juniper trees, the misconception about climate change and barrier reefs, and ways of cleaning up the beach. Aired on 07/07/18

Tash is the epitome of living a balanced and purpose driven life. After traveling the world learning cultures, techniques and yoga she found herself and her purpose right next door to the very restaurant she grew up in. On the same block as her family's Italian restaurant, Tash etched the name "Nourish'd" in the dust of a garage door which has now become the thriving plant-based cafe that Cape Townian's flock to. Not only does it have deliciously nourishing meals but it is a meeting place of like minded sustainable souls. Living in harmony with Nature is the key by which most of the life charm is revealed. That is why it is so extremely important to understand this simple belief that the natural order of things is a group of repetitive rhythmic processes that affect our health, physical strength and spiritual balance. The instruments functioning in Nature affects the human being, which is a part of the world… that’s why Tash and Nourish'd try their hardest to supply customers with as much organic, locally sourced, environmentally friendly produce as possible. They source local and seasonal produce from South African farmers that they trust. They follow the rhythms of nature to make sure you are healthy, happy and energetic as can be. The sanctuary offers goodies carefully created for their neighborhood friends, using vegetables and fruits with the highest nutrient content sourced with intention to provide the very best with the utmost love which then effects the flavour. What is Nourish'd? A cafe/ juice bar that brings awareness to sustainability, consciousness and environmental issues. Serves fresh natural nourishments to the city slickers. Who is Tash in her own words? City Hippy trying to save the planet one bamboo straw at a time. What is Tash trying to achieve? To make people more aware of their impact to this beautiful planet. Im trying to save the planet. Raise consciousness. Raise awareness for environmental issues that we are facing. e.g Climate change, draughts, pollution, carbon footprint and much more.

In this podcast, Deb Rudnick, an environmental scientist and chair of the Bainbridge Island Watershed Council, describes the upcoming Bainbridge Island Beach Cleanup on Saturday September 9th. All members of our community – individuals, families, groups, and people of all-ages – are invited to participate in this one-day cleanup to maintain our shorelines and ensure the health of our wildlife. Bainbridge held its first successful beach cleanup last year as part of a broader movement to protect our oceans worldwide. Deb shares with us that some marine creatures have died from ingesting large amounts of small plastic debris and waste. There's been a huge response by concerned citizens, as over half a million people from 112 countries removed more than 18 million pounds of trash during the 2016 International Coastal Cleanup. Bainbridge is continuing to be part of this broader movement this year under the leadership of Sustainable Bainbridge and its various partners: BI Watershed Council Bainbridge Beach Naturalists Zero Waste Bainbridge BI Land Trust Islandwood BI Parks and Recreation District Bainbridge Parks Foundation City of Bainbridge Island COBI Road Ends Committee Bainbridge Island Harbormaster This is an excellent opportunity for families and engaged citizens to do our part as well. Volunteers are encouraged to register in advance of the Saturday event at: http://www.sustainablebainbridge.org/bainbridge-beach-cleanup.aspx.  Advance registration allows you to choose which beach you'd like to work on.    The main effort is focused from 12pm to 3pm on Saturday, September 9th, but your help is appreciated even if for only part of that time. Further information can be found at the Sustainable Bainbridge web page for the event. There's also a Facebook page.

On that day, volunteers around the country will be making a difference on their local shorelines, working for both natural beauty and the health of shore birds and marine creatures. Deb explains that this first-of-a-kind cleanup day for the island's 56 miles of shoreline is being made possible by a wide range of local organizations: Sustainable Bainbridge, and component groups: BI Watershed Council Bainbridge Beach Naturalists Zero Waste Bainbridge BI Land Trust Islandwood BI Parks and Recreation District Bainbridge Parks Foundation City of Bainbridge Island Bainbridge Island Harbormaster Some marine creatures have died from ingesting large amounts of small plastic debris and waste. There's been a huge response by concerned citizens, as nearly 800,000 volunteers removed more than 18 million pounds of trash during the 2015 International Coastal Cleanup one year ago. Volunteers are encouraged to register in advance of the Saturday event by emailing Sustainable Bainbridge. Advance registration allows you to express an interest in the preferred stretch of beach where you'd like to help, and it will result in your obtaining advice and support in your efforts. Deb explains that you're welcome whether you're an individual, family or group. It's an all-ages event, so long as you're safely able to get down to the beach of your choice. Children should be under the supervision of an adult. The main effort is focused from 10am to 2pm that Saturday, but your help is appreciated even if for only part of that time.
