The Youth Plastic Mitigation Monitor Campaign was designed to focus on deconstructing and altering youth behavior regarding single-used plastic. As an individual working on my own behavior, I understood the difficulty and challenge of plastic reduction behavior. Therefore, I wanted to begin to address it at a young age when habits are more easily formed.

Today, EarthEcho International and SC Johnson proudly announced the 2025 cohort of Marine Plastics Ambassadors—a dedicated group of 30 young changemakers (ages 16-22) from across the United States. These passionate advocates will lead the charge in designing and implementing innovative campaigns and entrepreneurial solutions to combat plastic pollution and raise awareness of its devastating effects on our oceans and communities.
