World Ocean Day

One Ocean, One Climate, One Future – Together. So reads the mission statement on the UN website dedicated to the day intended to put our ocean in the spotlight.

First proposed at the Rio Earth Summit back in 1992, World Ocean Day is a UN initiative aimed at informing the public of the human impact on the ocean, developing a worldwide movement of ocean citizens, and arming people with the tools to take action so we can protect the future of this vital ecosystem.

You’ll notice it’s ‘World Ocean Day’ rather than ‘World Oceans Day’. As reflected in their mission statement, the UN recently dropped the ‘s’, finally recognising that the many bodies of water which make up our one ocean are inextricably connected, and we must look at ocean health as a whole if we are to reverse the damage caused in our short time on this planet.

Speaking out on issues from plastic pollution to oil spills, our limited edition activist t-shirts feature designs that shine a light on the plight of our ocean.
