Help the oceans on 9 June
On 9 June, Motion for the Ocean will send one global simple, clear message to policy makers: Oceans are Important. You can help!
To participate, on 9 June, please post one of your images or videos onto the social media outlet of your choice. The image can show the beauty, challenge or perils that face our oceans (or can simply be one of your favourites)!
Please add the following hashtags to the post: #M4O #MotionFortheOcean #SeaSaveTweet #PlasticPollutionCoalition. These will allow the imagery to be aggregated and presented to those in power to show your support for the oceans.

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
