World Oceans Day is an opportunity to recognize how deeply our lives depend on healthy oceans. Oceans regulate climate, support biodiversity, and sustain coastal communities, so protecting them is essential for both environmental and human well-being.

Kelp reforestation is the process of restoring underwater kelp forests in areas where they have declined or disappeared. It typically involves cultivating kelp sporophytes or seedlings and planting them back into the ocean using methods designed to help them grow and thrive in restored marine habitats.

Removing plastic from the ocean helps reduce pollution, protect marine life, and improve the long-term health of coastal ecosystems. It also helps prevent debris from breaking down into smaller particles that can be harder to remove and more harmful to wildlife.

Greenspark is our impact-per-order service that helps turn every customer purchase into measurable environmental action. Through Greenspark, each order can support vetted sustainability projects such as kelp restoration, ocean plastic recovery, tree planting, or carbon reduction, depending on the initiative tied to the campaign.

Coastal Kelp restores kelp forests along British Columbia’s coast through seaforestation, which means growing and replanting kelp in degraded marine areas. Their work supports biodiversity, improves habitat for species like herring, salmon, rockfish, and northern abalone, and creates benefits for Indigenous and local communities through collaborative restoration.

Plastic Bank is an organization that helps stop plastic from entering the ocean by supporting collection and recycling systems. Its model creates incentives for people to gather plastic waste, which helps reduce pollution and supports more circular use of materials.
