Many of our Happy Ocean community group members have been participating in an informal plastic free challenge for the month of April. It was so insightful and life-changing for many that we decided to create a challenge for others to join us for the month of May. With our group's collective efforts and ideas we present to you the “31-Day Plastic Free Challenge" - May 2019 edition. This is meant to be a fun way to learn, engage in plastic-free actions, and make conscious choices each day that help protect our beautiful oceans (and planet). Please spread the word and challenge your friends, family, classmates and/or colleagues to join us. Thanks in advance for your efforts - together we can make a difference. Here is a link to the poster that you can refer to each day of the challenge:   http://bit.ly/31daysMay
