Join us in celebrating
#NoStrawNovember—a global movement to refuse single-use plastic straws (& bags & cups & packaging, too!)—launched by Shelby O'Neil, student activist and founder of jr.ocean.guardians!
.
This year, jr.ocean.guardians is helping to raise awareness of how plastic is an environmental justice issue—from where plastics are produced, to where waste ends up, to the human health impacts of plastic pollution.
.
Shelby earned a Gold Award in Bow Seat's 2018 Marine Debris Creative Advocacy Competition for her "No Straw November" campaign, which helped inspire Alaska Airlines, among others, to switch to sustainable, marine-friendly alternatives to plastic straws.
