Making a positive difference for sea turtles is as
simple as following the FOUR easy steps in your daily life:
1. Reduce the
amount of garbage that you produce and clean up trash when you see it on the
beach !
Sea turtles can become tangled in trash and plastic,both
on the shore and in the water. Discarded items such as plastic bags,balloon or
fishing line may also be confused for food and eaten by sea turtles,often resulting will be
in injury or death.
2. Reduce the
amount of chemicals you use !
The chemicals you use on your lawn and in your home
can actually wash into the coastal waters by killing plants and animals. It is
very important to properly dispose of toxic chemicals and, even better, find
alternative products such as biodegradable solutions(products that break down quickly under the right circumstances).
3. Be a
VOLUNTEER !
Organize a clean-up day with your friends and clear
the beach of litter, give a presentation to your neighborhood or local school
on things they can do to save sea turtles, and most importantly, talk to others
about what they can do to make sure they are not putting these important
creatures in danger.
4. Last but
not least,DONATE your old mobile phones,laptop and tablets to save me!
