Reflection

We felt particularly impacted by the question "What role do you play?" when considering our submission, and thus an idea was born. Everyone has their part to play in preventing our oceans from being polluted. As Uncle Sam would say, "I want you to stop ocean pollution!" Whether something simple like choosing a paper bag instead of plastic at the grocery store, or something a little more difficult, like choosing to avoid plastic bottles, everything is important and everything helps. Many people have the tendency to think, "I'm just one person. Why should I recycle if no one else will?" Uncle Sam is here to say that we want you, personally, to help change the world. What one person can do doesn't seem like much, but it adds up. Everyone's contribution helps make the world a cleaner place to live in and enjoy.
