Today is World Ocean Day 🌊 🐬 pic taken in Laguna, CA, in a time before the Gopro was invented, with a film camera attached to my wrist, holding it underwater while sitting on my surfboard in the lineup. 🏄⠀⠀ What changed in those 20 years is the incredible number of plastic and general debris floating around!!!! And this happens everywhere, from the Pacific Palisades to Vevey. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ I believe that the big companies have understood the need to rapidly reduce and eventually totally eradicate plastic and that the first steps are taken into this direction, such as #Nestle pledges it. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ But there is also the great need to educate people. There is way too #meculture where people could'd care less about leaving their trash behind themselves, thinking someone will clean up after them.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Regardless of whether you see plastic or trash floating in the water or laying on the shores, be a good person (yogi, surfer, beachlover, mountainlover, chocolover, cigarettelover) pick up trash and leave every place better than you found it! ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ #cleanwaters #oceancleanup #lakecleanup #oldschool #photography #selfie #experimental #cleanupyourtrash #laguna #lagunabeach #pacificpalisades #santamonica #geneve #geneva #vevey #lausanne #montreux #genevetourisme #genevatourism #visitswitzerland #noplastic #philipmorris #jti #educate #educatepeople #swisschocolate #mindfulness #motherearth⠀⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/ByfzSeGIZDx/?igshid=1nq0b0po7b86b
