Dear John,

As we wrap up World Ocean Month and head into Plastic Free July, I want to take a moment to spotlight our incredible ocean and the harm that’s being done to it by plastic pollution—and [how you can help]([link removed]).

From dying coral reefs to altered ocean chemistry, plastics are destroying our ocean. Every year, millions of metric tons of plastic end up in the sea and shed trillions of microplastic particles. This plastic poisons marine life and disrupts the systems that make our ocean function properly.

But there’s hope, because together we can turn the tide.

[DONATE NOW]([link removed])

Your donation today helps us fund advocacy for critical policy changes to turn off the tap of plastic production at its source, significantly reducing plastic pollution. This is not just an environmental issue; it’s an issue of survival for marine species and coastal communities, and everyone on the planet.

We are all affected because all life on Earth depends on a healthy ocean. Please [act now to protect our ocean]([link removed]) and everything that depends on it, for the sake of our health and our future.

Onward,

[Julia Cohen]
