Plastic Bank turns 9 🎂 a big THANK YOU to each and every one of you for being with us on the journey to #OceanStewardship and helping to stop over 49 million kilograms of plastic! Today reminds us that we just need to begin, wherever we are, with whatever we have. That moment when we realize we’re an #OceanSteward but are too afraid to start... is still a start. "I think the real gift of that day was the realization that I didn't need to create Plastic Bank. I needed to become the person who could. It was really a spiritual day of awakening for me. There was a still, quiet voice, unattached to outcome, unattached to meaning. It was a space that said ‘you can become the person who makes change in the world’.” - @davidkatz, on the moment he conceived Plastic Bank just before lunch on May 9, 2013.
