Oceanic Global’s NYC Hub, in collaboration with artist Kalina Juzwiak (IG: @bykaju), created a conscious coloring book to spread awareness about the issue of marine plastic pollution in a fun and engaging way for young people. The book was released in honor of World Oceans Day 2020.
This book serves as a reminder that artistic expression and creative communication play a crucial role in the ocean conservation movement, and that our next generation of ocean leaders is engaged and dedicated to finding solutions. This book can be used as an engaging educational tool to teach young people about marine plastic pollution and how we all can be a part of the solution.

Did you know that you can find plastic wherever you go? It is even hiding on the beach!
-80% of plastic in the ocean comes from land-based sources (IUCN)
-More than 380 million tons of plastic are produced every year (Science Advances)
-It’s estimated that 4,900 million metric tons of plastic have accumulated in landfills and in our environment worldwide (Science Advances)
We partnered with Greening Forward and local youth leaders spearheaded by Forbi Perise Eyong Nyosai to roll out the coloring book as an educational tool in Cameroon!
