đź›’ Did you know the average family creates over 40 pounds of grocery-related plastic waste every year?
Plastic bags, bottles, and packaging don’t just pile up in landfills—they flow through rivers and storm drains, eventually reaching the ocean. For sea turtles, a floating bag looks a lot like a jellyfish… and the results can be deadly.
That’s why Zero Waste Week Tip
#2 is all about shopping smarter:
✔️ Bring reusable produce bags
✔️ Choose bulk bins over pre-packaged items
✔️ Go for glass or cardboard instead of plastic
✔️ Always carry your own shopping bags (yes, even for frozen foods)
Small swaps in the grocery store can mean big wins for the ocean. 🌊
And while you focus on preventing plastic from entering the environment, our crews are already out there removing what’s already in it.
Every 4ocean bracelet pulls a pound of plastic from the ocean. Wear one as your daily reminder that change is in your hands.
