I distributed BPA-free reusable water bottles at the Seaport Farmer's Market, equipping both residents and visitors with a tangible solution to combat plastic waste. Each bottle featured ocean-themed stickers and a business card hosting a QR code, seamlessly guiding recipients to a compelling website. This online hub showcases the merits of reusable bottles, along with a repository of ocean conservation resources. Successfully merging practicality with education, the “Marine Matters Now” project catalyzed change through accessible means, fostering a united community dedicated to safeguarding our oceans.
