This is a powerful reminder of the devastating impact of plastic pollution. It was the Gumbo Limbo Nature Centre that first posted the photograph on Facebook of the stranded loggerhead sea turtle and the 104 pieces of plastic found in its stomach.
When baby turtles hatch, they immediately head towards floating seaweed called sargassum, where they spend their first few years in life. With so much plastic in the ocean, fragments of plastic easily stick to the seaweed. Baby turtles mistake the plastic for food and end up eating it. Afterwards, they feel full, but without having received the nutrition they need to survive.
Our eco-friendly turtle necklace made from ocean plastic was created to serve as a constant reminder to protect sea turtles from facing a similar fate.
Ocean plastic may take hundreds of years to decompose, and in the meantime, currents will tear off microplastic that may be digested and affect marine life.
To save turtles and other marine animals, we regularly visit the local beaches here in Norway to collect microplastic for ocean conservation. The microplastic is then repurposed into beautiful and influential jewelry.
No two handmade necklaces will ever be identical, making your cute necklace truly unique. Every turtle necklace comes with a unique QR code - scan it to see who made your exact necklace, and where the microplastic was collected.
By wearing the Turtle Necklace made from ocean plastic, you are helping to protect turtles and other marine animals from plastic pollution.
Every minute, the equivalent of one garbage truck filled with plastics is dumped in the ocean. We need to act now to save our oceans.
