What is the Pledge For The Coral?

The Pledge For The Coral™ is a promise to change certain aspects of your habits and lifestyle to help ensure that future generations live in a world where coral reefs thrive as they once did.

You pledge to:

Greatly reduce or eliminate seafood consumption, especially apex predators like tuna, shark, swordfish, and other large fish that are critical to ocean balance. Choose plant-based alternatives whenever possible.
Refuse harmful chemicals: avoid sunscreens containing oxybenzone, octinoxate, or octocrylene, which damage coral DNA and prevent recovery. Use reef-safe mineral sunscreen (zinc oxide or titanium dioxide). Make your own at home using this recipe Or here’s an option you can buy now: Bali Zinc Surfing Sunscreen Mud
Reduce plastic and microplastic pollution: carry a reusable bottle, avoid single-use plastics, and wash synthetic clothes less frequently to minimize microfibers entering waterways.
Cut your carbon footprint: choose sustainable travel, conserve energy, and support renewable energy projects. Coral reefs depend on keeping global temperatures below 1.5°C of warming.
Support coral restoration and awareness: volunteer, donate, or share verified conservation projects like For The Coral that actively plant and protect reefs around the world.

By taking The Pledge For The Coral™, you become a steward of the sea proving that small choices, when multiplied, can rebuild what the world has lost.
