Lucy Hunt

Founder of Sea Synergy Marine Awareness & Activity Centre

The ocean is what connects each and everyone of us and allows us to survive here on Planet Earth. I was lucky enough to grow up on the beach and fell in love with the ocean from a young age hence I've always wanted to protect it. I feel privileged to work as a marine biologist and environmental educator. [Read More...]

Eoin Morton

Pro Cyclist and SUP Surfer

Since I have stopped racing bikes, I now fill my time with surfing and Stand Up Paddleboarding. The water is a tonic, it is an escape from  the day to day stress, it is the best playground on offer. Whether I’m surfing the waves in winter or cruising the on mirror like water of the summer, I love the ocean. [Read More...]

Any bit of water, especially in the heart of a city is a place where there are no cars, which absorb noise, which contain life. They are stress reducers. So when people dump in them or next to them, not only is it bad for  the water and the wildlife, it’s stressful to look at. [Read More...]

Marine scientist, Author & Private Chef

Seamus Mc Goldrick

Surf School Manager & Pro Bodyboarder

Growing up in a seaside village in the coastal county of Sligo, the ocean has been a constant in my life.

We can always plant more trees but there is only one ocean. [Read More...]

Rachael Lee

Swimmer & Firefighter

2 years ago while I was training to swim the English Channel I was spending more time than ever in the sea. I couldn't believe the amount of plastic and rubbish that I was swimming into, that was floating around me and being washed up to shore. Unless we start taking action now, this will be gone.

Ken O'Sullivan

Natural History Filmmaker, Cameraman & Ocean Conservationist

Everyone can do something, feel empowered. Use less plastic, buy a reusable water bottle and fill it at home, in Ireland we buy and throw away TWO MILLION plastic bottles every day. If we lined those bottles up, they would stretch from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher, back to Dublin and back to the Cliffs again, that's just one day's usage! [Read More...]

Consider taking up the #2minutebeachclean . It's such a small thing and if you do it with your friends/kids/family, it has a power message. Hopefully it will make us all more conscious about what plastic we can avoid altogether. And make sure you know what you can flush or not flush. [Read More...]
