Happy World Oceans Day

by Sainath Manikandan | 10-06-2019 14:52 recommendations 1

Come let¡¯s join the global mega-brand Adidas in its war against marine plastic pollution

Adidas had launched the global Run for the Oceans Campaign in 2018. It had united nearly 1 million runners and raised a whopping $1 million for Parley for the Oceans which was invested in the education of future generations on the marine plastic pollution issues. Adidas had also created 5 million pairs of shoes using recycled ocean plastic.

World Oceans Day is celebrated on June 8 every year. This year Adidas will produce 11 million pairs of shoes using upcycled marine plastic waste. It aims to bring together more runners from different parts of the world to run for the oceans and raise $1.5 million. Adidas will contribute $1 to Parley Ocean School programs for every 1 km completed between June 8 – June 16.

Let¡¯s do our bit by signing up and joining the Run for the Oceans challenge via the Runtastic App. It is very simple. Just follow the steps below:

1.   Download the Runtastic App on your mobile phone.

2.   Click on the Progress Tab.

3.   Select Run for the Oceans under the Challenges. Click on Join Challenge.

4.   Track all your runs with the App.

5.   Every step counts¡¦.

It is our prime responsibility to raise awareness and take action. As global citizens we need to show our support towards UN SDG 14 – Life Below Water and empower our future generations to make a difference.

Together we can create a wave of change by joining the run and showing our support towards our planet. Let¡¯s run, sweat and reshape our environment.
