Introduction
As you wade across the shorelines in California or Florida, you look beyond the shore and you see the clear beautiful ocean. Picture if you found trash all over in that ocean. Would you like swimming in water so filthy that the water wasn't clear? Well, that might become the case if humans keep dumping our trash into the ocean.
In fact, records say that if humans keep polluting our oceans, by 2050 the junk will outweigh the fish! Ellen MacArthur Foundation predicted that by 2050 there will be precisely 937 million pieces of plastic in the ocean!
The only way we might have a chance to keep our water safely protected from this garbage is if everyone does their part. Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle is one of the many ways that we can protect the Earth’s waters.
Do your part, make the world better, and have a fun time racing in the clear waters with no piece of trash in sight.

Founded in Boca Raton, Florida in 2017 4Ocean started with two ordinary guys wanting help clean the oceans of plastic and other pieces of garbage.
Andrew Cooper and Alex Schulze fish out plastic waste and turn it into something great. 4Ocean has so far collected over one-million pieces of recycles and garbage out of the oceans and turned them into merchandise!

Have you ever seen the American Family Insurance commercial, 'Clean Dreaming'? There are these two guys who are cleaning up a stream. They pull plastic out of the water in nets dumping it onto their boat. One of the guys, Robby states, "My dream is for people to think twice before throwing something out."
This important because the trash that we take out normally finds a way into the Earth's water. This isn't a good thing. It could lead to animal species decreasing by large amounts. Therefore having different types of fish, octopuses, many others will go extinct.

Elijah
Elijah was eagerly bulted to school, not wanting to miss the homeroom bell since he already missed his bus. He had slept in to late and was slacking when he ate breakfast. He also fell asleep feeding his turtle, Pedro.
To nervous to think Elijah threw his supplies onto his desk just before the bell chimed. Elijah jumped and sat down fiercely. He observed everyone else to see that he was the center of attention.
"Nice to see someone had a good sleep last night." whispered Quil sarcastically, Elijah's number one friend.
"Stayed up till' eleven thinking about tonight." Elijah yawned. Elijah and Quil were going to the skatepark after school that afternoon and it was all they could think about.
"You boys want to say something?" questioned Mrs. Marten.
Elijah shook his head fiercely.
