Discover the Blue Standard
Oceanic Global partnered with the Wildlife Conservation Society and their Give-A-Sip campaign, Lonely Whale, and Councilman Rafael Espinal Jr. to advocate in favor of passing legislation that would ban plastic straws in NYC.
On Thursday, June 21, 2018, before a city council committee hearing to discuss the proposed legislation, the groups co-hosted a rally in support of the bill at City Hall Park. During the public hearing, Oceanic Global founder, Lea D’Auriol, and Board Member, James Sternlicht, spoke in favor of passing the bill. Surrounding the Bill, Oceanic Global engaged their Blue Standard businesses in support of this Plastic-Free Straw Bill, with over 100 NYC Restaurants signing their support and representing at the hearing.
