In Special Topics Design, I was given the opportunity to advocate for a cause I feel passionate about. Due to the rise of pollution in oceans there is an immediate need for cleanups around the world. Starting with getting young teens involved, Save Our Shore (SOS) focuses on conserving the planet by implementing beach cleanups that rid beaches of trash that is harmful to sea life and the ocean itself. Teens can get involved by logging onto the “Save Our Shore” or SOS app, you can easily track how much waste you clean up at the beach. By tracking time teens can earn a reward of a t-shirt, button, mesh bag, towel or a reusable water bottle.
