Celebrate World Ocean Day: Protecting Our Blue Planet with Salt of the Earth

By Jade Dawes

Happy World Ocean Day, Salt of the Earth family! 🌊 Today, we join millions around the globe in celebrating and raising awareness about the importance of our oceans.

Why World Ocean Day Matters

World Ocean Day is celebrated every year on June 8th, it's a day to highlight how important the oceans are in our daily lives. Did you know that oceans cover more than 70% of our planet? They produce at least half of the Earth's oxygen and absorb about 30% of the carbon dioxide that we produce!

Oceans are home to a stunning variety of wildlife and are vital for our global ecosystems. But they are under threat from pollution, overfishing, and climate change. That's why World Ocean Day is so important—it reminds us to take care of our oceans.

Our Commitment to Ocean Conservation

At Salt of the Earth, we believe in making choices that benefit the environment. Here’s how we contribute to ocean conservation:

Plastic Reduction: Our refillable deodorants help cut down on single-use plastics. By choosing our refillable sprays, roll-ons, and sticks, you're not just saving money—you’re also preventing plastic waste from entering our oceans.
Sustainable Ingredients: We use natural, vegan-friendly ingredients certified by COSMOS Natural. This ensures our products are free from harmful chemicals that can pollute water sources and oceans.
Eco-Friendly Packaging: Our commitment to sustainable packaging means we strive to use recyclable and biodegradable materials wherever possible. This reduces the risk of plastic ending up in marine environments.
