save the mermaids

make your own swan, sea horse, coral reef...because you just saved one by not getting styrofoam or plastic to-go ware! Most places have tin foil, ask for that instead of the plastic alternative! Happy holidays beauties! #savethemermaids #uselesswasteless #plasticfreeforthesea #riseaboveplastic

Save the Mermaids gave a Paddle Harbor tour this morning to Joe Jasinski, the winner of the raffle of the Gaviota Save Naples event- all proceeds benefiting our precious and unique coast! We visited and learned about sea lions, found some single- use plastic, played under the wharf and swam in the ocean! Good job Joe or should we say mer-MAN! 😉🌊🐚#savethemermaids #mermaidadventures

this is MIGALOO the only known albino humpback in the world! this beautiful whale cruises along the eastern coast of Australia and is estimated to be around 26-29 years old. OUR OCEANS ARE SO PRECIOUS FOR THE INCREDIBLE CREATURES THEIR WATERS NURTURE. Many whales have been washing up on our shores with bellies full of plastic waste; stop using single use plastic today, and save mermaids and MIGALOO! 💙🌊🐚 #savethemermaids #savethewhales #uselesswasteless #plasticfreeforthesea

dear beautiful loves, respect yourself and your loved ones and do not drink and drive. A gorgeous source of light in our Santa Barbara community #malloryrae was taken from us as a victim in a drunk driving accident. She laughed and smiled with genuine joy and warmed the hearts and lives of thousands. Let her not die in vain and commit to being safe this holiday season. You are far too precious to risk being sorry. 💛💛💛 #malloryraedies

😂Keep smiling lovelies and share the joy in life💛 #postivevibes #moremermaids #lessplastic #plasticfreeforthesea #savethemermaids

Santa Barbara City College students presented on Save the Mermaids for their communications class this morning. They discussed single-use plastics, instigated a Mermaid Challenge, and talked about how our voices and actions have the power to make a difference! Plastic Free For the Sea! #savethemermaids #plasticfreeforthesea #mermaidchallenge

Happy Friday beautiful mermaids! Keep a smile on your dial all day long and do something nice for someone! Spread the joy💛 Spread the higher consciousness💛 Be the change💛 Be the sunshine! 💛☀ #savethemermaids #mermaids

Have you ever actually tried to use this crap?? So flimsy and hard to eat with, we'd rather use our hands!! Bring chopsticks in your purse or stash in your car, so you never have to suffer the pain of using disposable plastic silverware--nor will you need to pass on the suffering to our friends at sea! 🐢🐠🐙🐟🐬 #savethemermaids #reusables4life #reuse #byo #bringyourown

More than 95% of our oceans remain unexplored!! luckily we HAVE discovered this freaky friend! 😝The goblin shark (Mitsukurina owstoni) is a rare, poorly known species of deep-sea shark. Sometimes called a "living fossil," it is the only extant representative of the family Mitsukurinidae, a lineage some 125 million years old. This species looks unlike any other shark, with a long flattened snout, highly protrusible jaws containing prominent nail-like teeth, and pink coloration. YOWZA! Let's keep our sea healthy, so we can keep discovering! #savethemermaids #oceanconservation #goblinshark #oceans #ocean #sea #shark

VANCOUVER is on a mission to be the world's greenest city. Tuesday they launched a cig butt recycling program! Let's hope this catches on, so we keep dirty butts off our beaches! Despite it being illegal to smoke on sand, it's the #1 find in cleanups. YUCK and did you know the filters are made of plastic? So they trap all those carcinogenic chemicals then sit around FOREVER in our environment posing as little nibbles for sea creatures!! #gnarly Read more on our Facebook page. #savethemermaids #plasticfreeforthesea #nomoredirtybutts #cleanyourbeach #ocean #beach #cigarette it's

When you find yourself out in the world in great desire of the dirty dark pleasure of the coffee bean with no reusable cup, no mug floating in your car, not even a mason jar packed away for the next trip to the bulk section at the grocery store--go with what DOES get recycled / can break down in our natural environment. Comes from trees--turns to dirt. PAPER. Uses FAR too much water to make this a habit, BUT ALWAYS SKIP THE PLASTIC LID Y'ALL. Thanks and enjoy your S U N D A Y ☀🌊💙🐚 #SAVETHEMERMAIDS (at Bluff Top)

We use a TON of plastic. From coffee up lids, to reusable coffee cups, to yogurt cups, to shampoo containers, to Tupperware containers...there's a lot getting around. Be a conscious consumer and invest in products made from natural materials like wood or even glass and metal work better; if it's hard to find a substitute, support conscious companies offering recycled plastics or biodegradable plastics. #preserve recycling #StonyfieldFarm plastic yogurt cups into razors
