Tune in and tune out plastic
EPISODE FOUR: DYSON CHEE
"I realized plastic pollution wasn't just a problem locally for me, but that it was a global issue all around the world that people had to tackle."
Dyson Chee is an 18-year-old youth activist from Oahu who was a vocal advocate for the implementation of Bill 40 — one of the most stringent single-use plastic bans in the United States.
In this episode, Project O.C.E.A.N. Hawai’i founder Dyson Chee reveals how attending Ocean Heroes Bootcamp, challenging his own perceived limitations, and going against the current to #beatplasticpollution helped him realize his place in the world.
52 Hertz host Petrice Jones and Dyson talk Bill 40, the power of youth activism, politics, and personal transformation.
