Turning Plastic Ocean Pollution Into



                                          Sea-saving Art




            Hey guys, Bliss Planet coming at
        you from Bandon, Oregon. This is
        Henry the Fish created by Washed
        Ashore. Washed Ashore is a non-
        profit organization that builds and
        exhibits aesthetically powerful art to
        educate a global audience about
        plastic pollution in oceans and
        waterways and sparks positive
        changes in consumer habits. This
        organization is creating awareness
        through art. They took something
        that is harmful to wildlife and the
        environment and they have turned it
        into something really beautiful. They
        have taken things that are washed
        up on the beaches and created a
        sculpture with it. So they have taken something
        bad and turned it into something Good. Lighters,
        bottle caps, sandals, bottle caps, plastic shovels
        that have washed up on the shore was
        transformed into Henry the Fish.
