The ocean is a source of endless wonder, adventure, and life, covering more than 70% of our planet. Yet, it faces constant threats from pollution, overfishing, and climate change. At Gecko® Marine, we believe that every person can play a part in protecting our seas. Whether you're out boating, diving, or simply enjoying a day at the beach, these five actions can make a difference.
Bring Reusable Containers on Your Trips
Single-use plastics are among the top pollutants in our oceans. By swapping plastic bottles for reusable ones or packing your snacks in eco-friendly containers, you reduce waste and help keep beaches clean.
Properly Dispose of Waste and Join Cleanup Drives
Before leaving any outdoor spot, double-check to ensure you've taken all your trash. Better yet, join or organize cleanup drives. Our signature eco-friendly trash bags, included in every Gecko® Marine pack, are a simple way to get started.
Use Reef-Safe Sunscreen
Chemical-heavy sunscreens harm marine life, especially coral reefs. Opt for biodegradable, reef-safe alternatives to protect yourself and the ocean simultaneously.
Practice Sustainable Boating and Fishing
Be mindful of anchoring practices to avoid damaging coral reefs, and only fish within regulated limits. Supporting sustainable fishing initiatives also helps maintain ocean biodiversity.
