workshops, exhibitions and lectures on ocean topics, hazards of plastic and climate change, hands-on activities,
educational videos but will use art, beach rules and recycling to stop the selling, purchase and use of single- use plastic.
The major focus of the program is to tackle the issue of single-use plastic and its negative effects on the environment.
