Make Waves for a Cleaner Sea: Join the Plastic Free July Challenge
Plastic pollution is one of the biggest threats to our oceans, and Belize’s blue space is no exception. The Belize Barrier Reef is home to hundreds of marine species. But plastic waste endangers this delicate ecosystem, harming marine life, polluting our waters, and even making its way into our food chain.
This Plastic Free July, Oceana invites you to be part of the global movement to reduce single-use plastics and protect our marine resources.
Plastic pollution begins with our daily choices — but so does the solution. Join Oceana’s #PlasticFreeJuly challenge to make a simple, impactful difference.
