Kick Plastic

We proudly sell Costa Del Mar Sunglasses and Apparel at Wekiva Island. We are committed to Kicking Plastic like they are! 

 

Kick Plastic

We have a bad habit. Every year, Americans use millions of tons of plastic just once, before throwing it away – and far too much of it ends up in our oceans. Together, we can change our ways and put plastic in its place.

COSTA’S COMMITMENT

Costa was #BornOnTheWater by a group of fishermen in 1983. Since then, we have supported causes that contribute to the preservation of our watery world. It’s part of our DNA.

Lately we’ve seen an increasing amount of plastic pollution on our adventures. Plastic is not only clogging our landfills but is finding its way into our waterways and oceans at an unprecedented rate. Kick Plastic was launched by Costa to help reduce the amount of plastic we use as a company and to mobilize a movement. You can help.

  • 98% of ocean pollution comes from land.
  • By 2050 there could be more plastic than fish in the ocean (by weight).
  • One in four fish tested have plastic in them.
