Stuffed Turtle

$35.00
These Turtle are handmade with heat fused sheets of post consumer upcycled plastic bags. They are 10.5 inches wide and can be easily wiped down or hand-washed. They are made to order.

A household takes home about 1,500 plastic bags a year, and on average, only about 5% of those bags are recycled. Littered plastic bags, which never biodegrade, often find their way into the ocean. Many marine animals mistake the bags for food. The plastic can not be digested and slowly kills tens of thousands of these animals each year. Since plastic bags take 1,000 years to break down, they last long after the animal is gone and are released back into the wild, continuing the cycle.

In an effort to find a solution for the excess of discarded plastic bags (roughly 100 billion every year), Seacyclables were born.

Thanks to the effort the Sea Turtle Protection Society of Greece is doing to help protect these animals in the wild, we will be donating a percentage of the proceeds to their organization. Follow the link to find out more about them http://www.archelon.gr/index_eng.php
