Hola ocean’s souls!
Even though we’re still fighting with the pandemic, we can’t ignore the problems changing the future of our “only” earth: climate change, pollution, drought… Seas are oceans, the lifeblood of the earth, and home of endlessly many species, are unfortunately under the attack of pollution. Irresponsible and unconscious behaviors of humans are the main reason. With the mucilage problem that’s killing the sea ecosystem in Turkey, we’re given the alarm of this very serious crisis. Earth had seven continents, now the eighth is on the way, forming up in oceans, and it might be closer to you more than you think. How? There grew an island of garbage because of the trash thrown into oceans —and there are many more frightening harms done on ecosystems by people who drain liquids to seas, go haunting illegally, don’t recycle, produce more and more garbage, use non-nature-friendly chemicals, and products… That’s why we collected some ads that rub the most unsettling facts to our faces in creative ways.

What a beautiful and impactful product line.
