Planet vs Plastics | 60X40

“The Planet vs. Plastics campaign is a call to arms, a demand that we act now to end the scourge of plastics and safeguard the health of every living being upon our planet.” 


Kathleen Rogers - President, Earth Day Network

What is Earth Day?

On April 22nd of every year, the entire world is invited to celebrate Earth Day. It’s the largest environmental movement in the world and aims to raise awareness of environmental issues and promote eco-friendly practices. To make the most of the event, many countries practice Earth Week to extend the time focused on this important cause.


What is the focus for 2024?

"To achieve a 60% reduction by 2040, EARTHDAY.ORG’s goals are: 

(1) promoting widespread public awareness of the damage done by plastic to human, animal, and all biodiversity’s health and demanding more research be conducted on its health implications, including the release of any and all information regarding its effects to the public; 

(2) rapidly phasing out all single-use plastics by 2030 and achieving this phase-out commitment in the United Nations Treaty on Plastic Pollution in 2024; 

(3) demanding policies ending the scourge of fast fashion and the vast amount of plastic it produces and uses; and 

(4) investing in innovative technologies and materials to build a plastic-free world."

With each sale of our Whale Tail necklace, $5.00 is donated to Sea Shepherd who help defend, conserve and protect our ocean and its' wildlife.

"Our remedy is Direct Action; a collaborative model that partners with governments to push back on decades of exploitation and neglect using ships, technology, tenacity and a relentless commitment to hands-on, daily solutions. We fight the poachers, cartels, and industrial trawlers that break the law, that push species to the edge, and our crews and volunteers work to bring their days of devastating the ocean to an end."

National Geographic + Lokai


To help raise awareness of wildlife, we have included in our collections the Lokai National Geographic range. This collection was inspired by the wildlife photography of the National Geographic Photo Ark — a multiyear effort that aims to photograph every species living in the world’s zoos and wildlife sanctuaries, inspire action through education, and help protect wildlife by supporting on-the-ground conservation projects.
