🌊 Sea-riously Simple Swaps to Help Save Our Oceans!
Hey ocean lovers! 🐠💙
Did you know that the tiniest choices you make each day—like brushing your teeth or mopping your floor—can have huge ripple effects on our seas? At SAHASEA, we believe saving the ocean doesn’t have to be hard or boring. In fact, it can be fun, fabulous, and totally doable!
Here are 7 simple yet powerful swaps you can make starting today to give our seas a little extra love:
1. Brush Up Your Game — Go Bamboo!
That plastic toothbrush you used last year? Yep, it’s probably still floating somewhere in the ocean. Swap it for a bamboo toothbrush and give plastic the boot. Your teeth stay sparkly—and so does the sea!
2. Toothpaste Tabs > Tubes
Toothpaste tubes are landfill lurkers. Go for toothpaste tabs (like the ones from The Nature Masons) that come in lightweight travel friendly little tins. Just pop, chew, brush, and smile knowing your toothpaste isn’t swimming with the fishes
3. Bar None — Shampoo That Doesn’t Cost the Earth
Toss those bulky plastic shampoo bottles and try a solid shampoo bar. It smells amazing, lasts longer, and comes in zero-waste packaging. It’s like a spa day—for you and the ocean, there are so many brands to try from. If you have the patience and access you can go a step further and try soap-nuts, aloe or even gram-flour to clean your scalp amongst other home remedies
4. Laundry Day, the Ocean Way
Your clothes might be clean, but what about the water they’re washed in? Regular detergents shed microfibers—tiny plastics that sneak into the sea. Say hello to Coco Custo: a planet-loving laundry powder made from coconut that’s tough on dirt but gentle on the ocean
5. Mop Like You Mean It
Ditch those toxic phenol floor cleaners (the ones that make your eyes sting and tiles yellow). Grab some Arani Eco floor-cleaning pods—they’re pet-safe, ocean-friendly, and smell like nature, not a chemical lab.
6. Fish Smart, Eat in Season
Let fish do their thing (like, you know, reproduce) by following seasonal seafood guides like In Season Fish and Know Your Fish. Choosing seafood when it’s not spawning helps keep oceans full and happy. Plus, it’s fresher, tastier, and way cooler.
7. Coasters with a Cause
What’s cooler than a coaster? A coaster made from recycled ghost nets—the lost fishing nets that haunt our seas. Increase your Net Worth the next time you need coasters or gifting options. At SAHASEA we turn ocean waste into something wonderfully worth it. Sip your chai, save the sea.
🌺 One Small Step for You, One Giant Leap for Ocean-kind
Saving the ocean doesn’t mean turning into Captain Planet overnight. Each swap is a ripple that turns into a wave. Do one. Do three. Do them all. The sea (and your future grand-kelp) will high-fin you for it. Share your progress, inspire a friend, and let’s turn this into a wave of change.
-> Little changes, big waves. C’mon let’s dive right in and keep our oceans wild, wonderful, and oh-so-blue.
