But this incredible opportunity to enjoy the oceans each summer has consequences: human activity is the source of immense threats for the oceans, which are degrading faster than we think. This summer make sure you\u2019re participating in their protection, rather than their destruction.\u00a0 Here are 5 simple things you can do this summer to reduce your impact on the oceans.\u00a0 Lose the straws in your cocktails. Plastic straws are extremely dangerous for marine biodiversity, often ending up in the stomach of sea animals. Make sure to avoid using them, you\u2019ll only enjoy your drink more knowing you\u2019re not harming marine species!\u00a0 Protect your skin, and the oceans. A sunburn can ruin a good holiday; but it\u2019s important to know that the chemicals contained in some sunscreens are damaging coral reefs. This summer check the ingredients in your sunscreen and opt for a mineral-based, reef-safe one!\u00a0 Stay hydrated and plastic free. Using a reusable water bottle instead of buying plastic ones is an easy way to make sure more plastic doesn\u2019t end up in the oceans, and it\u2019s also cheaper.\u00a0 Make your summer diet environment-friendly. Buy locally-grown and pesticides-free fruits and vegetables. The transportation of exotic fruits participates in global warming, and pesticides often end up polluting the oceans. Make sustainable seafood choices: when shopping or eating out, make sure to avoid over-exploited species.\u00a0 Make great memories while respecting biodiversity. When you go exploring, don\u2019t remove any rock, shell or coral from the shore or the sea \u2013 they\u2019re all important parts of an equilibrium. For your souvenirs, avoid objects made of coral, tortoise shell or shark products that harm marine biodiversity. The best summer souvenirs are the memories you will keep!\u00a0\u00a0 The oceans are counting on you. The Pure Ocean team wishes you a wonderful and sustainable summer!\u00a0\u00a0 [\/av_textblock] [\/av_three_fifth][av_one_fifth min_height=&#8221; vertical_alignment=&#8221; space=&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;
