Companies that Help the Environment and Transform the Ocean

Ocean Blue Project’s journey to rebuild our one world ocean ecosystem and preserve the environment for future generations is made possible through the invaluable support of our dedicated partner companies that help the environment.

Ocean Blue is the solution to plastic pollution and remains committed to taking direct action and tackling prevention through education. Ocean Blue Project is steadfast in its mission to eliminate 5,000,000 pounds of plastic from our One World Ocean. This goal receives a powerful boost from strategic collaborations with environmentally conscious companies like Boxed Water is Better, Patagonia Action Works, Healthy Human, and 1% for the Planet.

The unwavering support of our corporate investors empowers Ocean Blue to surpass previous milestones in removing plastic from the ocean. Together with our partners, Ocean Blue Project takes pride in making a substantial impact on ocean health, fostering a cleaner and more sustainable marine environment than ever before.

Joining Forces for a Cleaner Tomorrow: Ocean Blue Partners with Earth Breeze

We are thrilled to announce that this Earth Day marks the expansion of an innovative partnership between Ocean Blue and Earth Breeze to cleanup 1.5 million pounds of plastic and debris from our oceans and coastlines this year. This ambitious project not only underscores our commitment to the planet but also paves the way for a cleaner, healthier future for all living beings.

Through this partnership, we aim to harness the power of community engagement, innovative solutions, and sustainable practices to tackle the pressing environmental issue of ocean plastic pollution. We believe that by joining forces, we can amplify our impact and inspire others to take action in their communities.

 

Ocean Blue Project and Good Tide Make Waves for Plastic Free Seas

In 2022, Wyld and it’s newest brand, Good Tide, showed up on the scene to remove a staggering 150,000 pounds of plastic and debris. And in 2024, the leading cannabis edibles brand is supporting the removal of another 100,000 pounds from U.S. beaches and ocean bound waterways through ocean cleanup donations.

Wyld’s Pillars of Commitment serve as a guiding light for the company’s mission of creating meaningful impacts and enacting actionable change to benefit both people and the planet. And what is a more actionable change than directly funding ocean cleanup efforts?

In fact, the Good Tide brand is pledging to continue their wave of support for Ocean Blue to remove 100,000 for three consecutive years bringing the company’s total pledge of support to cleanup 450,000 total pounds through 2026.

The overall goal of this collaboration is to reduce the amount of microplastic and marine debris traveling to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a vast area in the Pacific Ocean where plastic waste accumulates. Through this cleanup effort, Ocean Blue and companies that help the environment, Wyld and the Good Tide brand, protect fragile ecosystems and preserve marine wildlife.

Patagonia’s Environmental Impact: A Strategic Partnership with Ocean Blue Project for Clean Water Initiatives

In a significant collaboration for clean water initiatives, Patagonia was one of the first companies that help the environment to join forces with Ocean Blue Project. In 2014, Ocean Blue became a Patagonia grantee to support stream restoration projects in Oregon and California.

The primary focus of this partnership was the preservation of wild rivers and urban streams, aiming to protect salmon and their ecosystems. Patagonia’s commitment to environmental responsibility extends beyond its renowned style and materials – the company has been actively giving back to impactful organizations since 1985 through initiatives like 1% for the Planet.

Through Patagonia’s World Trout Initiative, funding is provided to organizations offering impactful solutions for vulnerable salmon species. Geared towards clean water, Ocean Blue Project’s initiative, “Make A Wish, Save A Fish,” received support from Patagonia, contributing funds for the planting of native trees along Oregon streams. Until 2021, local volunteers, including students, actively engaged in planting trees, enhancing water quality in natural resource areas of the United States west coast.

Ocean Blue’s collaborative efforts with local youth involve growing native trees and shrubs, contributing to the certification of wildlife habitat areas. Supported by Patagonia, these initiatives helped combat erosion, lower temperatures, and improve overall river health. The partnership exemplifies Patagonia’s dedication to environmental causes and reinforces its presence in searches related to sustainable consumer goods.

Today, Patagonia supports Ocean Blue through collaborative campaigns to activate volunteers nationwide and beyond. Visit Patagonia Action Works to take action today!
