Ocean Blue Project and Healthy Human Join Forces for Clean Oceans
Proceeds from 2,000 limited edition reusable Stein bottles will fund the removal of 60,000 pounds of plastic from the ocean.
MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C., September 15, 2020 (Newswire.com) - Ocean Blue Project, the nonprofit dedicated to water conservation, and Healthy Human, the award-winning reusable water bottle creator, launched a joint campaign to raise awareness and funds for ocean plastic removal. The duo will generate funds through the sale of custom-branded, reusable Stein bottles. The $30 price point is accessible for everyone, yet still creates real impact. Proceeds from just a single bottle cover the cost of removing 30 pounds of plastic.
Both partners are excited about the potential for this program. “We’re delighted to have the support of Healthy Human as we work to tackle the harmful use of plastics. More than 60 million plastic bottles end up in landfills and incinerators every day, and last year alone that totaled 22 billion discarded bottles,” said Richard Arterbury, founder and Director of Ocean Blue Project. “The reusable Stein bottle is a fantastic solution to reduce single-use plastic and protect marine animals. At 21 oz, it is also a great tool to keep you hydrated and healthy.”
CEO of Healthy Human, Richard Stanton, added, “We’re thrilled to partner with Ocean Blue, because the original goal of Healthy Human was to reduce single-use plastic and provide customers with a more sustainable on-the-go water bottle. The company has evolved over time to extend to wellbeing for both humans and the planet - this includes better human health through education and environmental initiatives. This partnership will not only have a lasting impact on our oceans, it importantly underlines the importance of minimizing plastic pollution.”
Ocean Blue Project is also including the bottle as part of its annual Grassroots Membership package.
