With global plastic production on the rise and the continuous amount of mismanaged waste, marine fauna's future is at stake. Plastic pollution is a major environmental concern and efforts are needed globally in order to protect our environment. This report focuses on whether ocean pollution and single-use plastic education and outreach can be a part of a community's solution. This study is a quasi-experimental design based on a survey, intervention, and post-survey format. It was found that ocean pollution education and reducing personal waste guidance can help raise awareness because it can positively impact individuals' environmental attitudes and actions.Description
