An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning about how our oceans support life on Earth by producing oxygen, regulating climate, and providing habitat, food, and jobs.

If possible, I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area while following CDC guidelines for social distancing.
