As a lifelong ocean swimming champion, the only human to date to swim from Cuba to Florida, 111 miles nonstop in 2013, my heart lives in the magic of our blue seas. I have recently founded OceansCommit, an initiative driving to reduce single-use plastic. Plastic Pollution Coalition is our main source of education and inspiration.
Flipping the Script on Plastic’s Place in Our World
Plastic Pollution Coalition’s list of A-List supporters includes Jeff Bridges, Jackson Browne, Fran Drescher, Ben Harper, Diana Nyad, Alice Waters, and Alfre Woodard – to name a few. When these notables speak out, millions of people wake up to the plastic pollution crisis.
In 2022, the Coalition will be working with leaders within the entertainment industry to encourage the storylines of popular films and television to include messaging that moves the nation and the world away from single-use plastics towards reusables and refillables, and a plastic-free, more just, equitable, and regenerative future.
The coalition seeks $100,000 to expand this campaign. And, for larger donors, Co-FounderJulia Cohen says there are opportunities to dramatically expand the organization’s lean $2 million budget.
“Imagine what we could do with double that,” she says.
