Ocean's Zero 1.0.13943

Ocean's Zero is a mobile application designed to facilitate the understanding of Zero Waste principles and promote ocean conservation.

The app contains 25 challenges aimed at helping users progressively minimize their waste in daily life. It offers a range of DIY cosmetic recipes, homemade household products, and practical tips for adopting a greener lifestyle, effectively guiding users through this journey towards sustainability.

◆ HOW DOES OCEAN'S ZERO WORK? ◆

The process is straightforward:

• No registration required, allowing immediate engagement with the Zero Waste challenges.
• Progress through 25 unlockable challenges, each introducing a new sustainable habit to incorporate into daily routines.
• Accumulate points to visualize personal progress.
• If not ready for a particular challenge, users can queue it for later and continue with others.
• Gain insights into the collective impact of over 100,000 users, illustrating the potential for meaningful change when acting together.

◆ EMPOWER YOURSELF AND THOSE AROUND YOU ◆

The application emphasizes the importance of understanding the consequences of our consumption habits. Each challenge is initiated with statistics about daily consumption behaviors—such as the number of coffee pods used or the water required to produce clothing—and highlights their implications for the ocean and environment. The information is delivered in an engaging manner, making it accessible for all ages, thus encouraging family participation in these environmentally friendly practices.

◆ TRACK YOUR PROGRESS AND THAT OF AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY ◆

Users can track their progress by collecting points and unlocking new levels within their Zero Waste journey. Completing each challenge provides concrete data about how much users can reduce their plastic footprint.

This collective effort is further demonstrated by statistics such as the elimination of over 8 million single-use plastic bags from entering marine ecosystems annually, therefore safeguarding marine wildlife like dolphins and turtles.

◆ ZERO WASTE MAKES YOU HAPPY ◆

Embracing a Zero Waste lifestyle not only contributes to environmental well-being but also enhances personal health. Users are encouraged to abandon single-use plastics and harmful chemical products in favor of DIY solutions that promote sustainability and self-sufficiency. This approach fosters a sense of accomplishment and mental clarity by simplifying life.

◆ WHO IS SURFRIDER? ◆
