Protect the Sea
i wanted to make a huge impact on my generation, but i had to start small so i began my advocacy in my high school.
i knew already that our oceans are being ruined by the second, so i wanted to change that and get people to recycle properly. i began with a social media page on instagram called protect the sea. i figured a large majority of my generation is on social media and use instagram, so that's what i went for. i posted pictures of animals in the ocean and captioned them with facts.
i also made a small commercial of what happens if you don't recycle properly, in hopes people would change how they threw away their trash. i also posted that on the instagram as well.
due to a short amount of time, i wanted to post posters all around the school so kids could see them and hopefully recycle, but i didn't get around to do so.
