#MakeWaves

Pledge to Support Clean Water With Us and 1% for the Planet

The Adventure Scientists Microplastics Project is featured as a “Water Activator” in a far-reaching campaign this summer run by one of our nonprofit partners. 1% for the Planet’s Blue Needs You To Make Waves campaign will involve thousands in a pledge to help keep the Earth’s waters clean.

Check out this creative piece highlighting Executive Director Gregg Treinish’s contributions to water conservation:

The Pledge: Blue Needs You To Make Waves
Water—Swim, play, snorkel, fish, bathe, drink—the main component of all living things, 
from tadpoles to tigers. Clean is how we like it, and how our planet needs it. Good quality 
and access are basic not only to our survival but to our well-being and pleasure. 
Water issues take on many forms depending on locale, but no matter where we live, water matters and we need to care of it. 

The BNY campaign also features Jaclyn Johnston’s 300-mile sailing/data collection adventure from Mackinac Island to Chicago, through this video produced by Ship to Shore Productions:
