Despite the negativity surrounding the current state of our Ocean, the
good news is that it’s not too late to turn things around.
We just have to take positive steps now.
DO NOT pour fat from cooking or
any other type of fat, oil, or grease
down the sink. Keep a “fat jar”
under the sink to collect the fat
and discard in a safe way when
full.
DO NOT dispose of harmful
household chemicals or
cleaning agents down the
sink or toilet.
DO NOT flush pills, liquid or
powder medications or
drugs down the toilet.

Avoid using the toilet as a
wastebasket.
Most tissues, wrappers, dust
cloths, and other paper goods
should be properly discarded
in a wastebasket.
Run the dishwasher or
washing machine only
when you have a full
load.
This conserves
electricity and water.
Use the minimum amount of
detergent and/or bleach when
you are washing clothes or
dishes.
Use only phosphate free soaps
and detergents.
JUST BECAUSE IT DISAPPEARS, DOESN’T MEAN IT
GOES AWAY
Remember:
“If you think the ocean isn’t important,
imagine Earth without it. Mars comes to
mind. No ocean No life support system.”
Sylvia Earle

Despite the challenges facing our oceans, it is never too late to make a positive impact. By avoiding actions like pouring fat down the sink, disposing harmful chemicals in the wrong way, or flushing medications down the toilet, we can significantly reduce water pollution. Implementing good practices such as using civic amenity sites, avoiding using the toilet as a wastebasket, running appliances with full loads, and using eco-friendly detergents can all contribute to preserving our water resources and protecting marine life.
