Here’s your fourth challenge for Ocean Conservancy’s #OceanConservancyChallenge, Peakers: Taper your takeout waste & pack a waste-free lunch! 🥡 Fact: Plastic foam is particularly harmful to marine life. Plastic foam breaks apart easily, and studies have found that plastic foam pieces are ingested by a wide range of marine animals including birds🪿 (albatross, petrels, gulls, fulmars), shellfish🦀 (crabs, mussels, barnacles), marine mammals🦭 (seals, sea lions, porpoises), and turtles🐢 (green, loggerhead). Tip: Going to a Peaker meet-up picnic🧺🌲 outdoors? Bring snacks or meals in reusable containers and pack reusable utensils🍴 to reduce your trash impact. Try to avoid foods that come individually wrapped. . . . #PeakersSeaTheChange #OCxMPC #OceanConservancy #MyPeakChallenge #MPC2023 #MPC #SamHeughan

Here’s your second challenge for #OceanConservancyChallenge, Peakers: Take a stand on straws and quit the cutlery! 🍴 Fact: Plastic cutlery and plastic straws have been ranked as key threats to marine🐬 life. In a 2015 study co-authored by Ocean Conservancy, cutlery was rated as one of the top two items with the greatest ingestion risk for seabirds, turtles🐢, and marine mammals. Tip: When ordering food🥡 for delivery, skip the plastic utensils or chopsticks and use what you have at home. Grabbing food on the go or traveling? Carry a set of reusable utensils with you or order a meal that can be consumed without utensils (like pizza🍕 or sandwiches). . . . #PeakersSeaTheChange #OCxMPC #OceanConservancy #MyPeakChallenge #MPC2023 #MPC #SamHeughan

Here’s your third challenge for #OceanConservancyChallenge, Peakers: Hydrate without waste & use reusable bottles!💧♻️ For October, we will give $1 to Ocean Conservancy for every MPC mug and reusable bottle. 🌊 Fact: Plastic bottles are a major contributor to environmental pollution. Plastic bottles break up into and generate microplastics, which enter the environment and pose a threat to both wildlife and human health. The plastic rings from bottle caps pose a significant threat as these can become entangled between seabirds’ necks and beaks, limiting the ability of the bird to feed. Tip: Save money and avoid waste. Fill your reusable bottle with water or fountain drinks on the go. . . . #PeakersSeaTheChange #OCxMPC #OceanConservancy #MyPeakChallenge #MPC2023 #MPC #SamHeughan
