Tolles Konzept, war sofort überzeugt! Ich finde es oft schwierig von zu Hause aus Wege zu finden, den Meerestieren mit der schrecklichen Umweltverschmutzung zu helfen... Es war schon immer ein Thema, was mich beschäftigt, dank Ocean Hero kann man ganz einfach helfen! Das ist das Mindeste was wir tun können, denn die Menschen sind dem Ganzen zu verantworten.

I love what you guys are doing. I used to think, "Omg, I feel bad for the ocean," but you helped me and the animals. I'm 15, but the thinking was first at 8, but now it's okay. My friends and I hung out and drove to about 40 beaches and oceans because they were close, and by midnight, we got 5976 bottles AND more harmful stuff to the Ocean. Thank you, ocean heroes!
