Bangkok World Oceans Day

Hi, everyone! How are you doing? :)

We would like to make a special after-event post. What is that about? Please read below 👇

On the event day, we had the pleasure to host an exhibition by artist Sandrine Beillard, who kindly accepted to produce a special “Ocean Collection”, each piece being unique, part of the benefits being redistributed to the Sang Foundation.

🌏 We INVITE you to SUPPORT the Foundation by getting some of these artworks, specially designed for the purpose of saving our Oceans!

💎 The pictures, printed on canvas, are refined and unique pieces, shining with the day or night light, embellished with Swarovski crystals, caviar beads, freshwater pearls, glass flakes, metallic flowers, jewels… All natural material without plastic!

Here are some examples of what is available from Sandrine's “Ocean Collection” that you can purchase through Sang Foundation. (Some videos of the art details will be on the next post - stay tuned).

Thank you Sang Foundation for organizing a great event for World Oceans Day! อยากจะให้เพื่อนเพื่อนได้มาดูกิจกรรมหลายหลายอย่างที่สอนเราว่าจะสามารถดำเนินชีวิตโดยที่ไม่ใช้ถุงพลาสติกที่ใช้ได้ครั้งเดียวอย่างไร
ประเทศไทยเยี่ยมมากมีคนที่มีไอเดียคิดหาสิ่งที่จะมาทดแทนพลาสติกที่ใช้ได้ครั้งเดียวเยอะมาก แต่ยังไม่ได้การสนับสนุนในวงกว้าง ขอให้ทุกคนลองหาข้อมูลดูนะคะ น้องลิลลี่เชื่อว่าเราเปลี่ยนได้แล้วเปลี่ยนชีวิตให้ไม่ใช้หรือรถใช้พลาสติกที่ใช้ได้ครั้งเดียวได้แน่นอนค่ะถ้าเราตั้งใจเราทำได้ทั้งนั้น

🎉💜

Thank you Eco Beasts for visiting our booth during this World Oceans Day Bangkok 2019 !
Glad to see different generations curious about sustainable alternatives to plastic use ! 🌱🌏

Precious Plastic Bangkok

Thank you to Sang Foundation and Alliance française de Bangkok for an amazing event to promote ! Thank you to all the amazing people who attended our workshop as well. Fighting together with Grin Green International Trash Hero Thailand and Eco Beasts is how we can combat this environmental crisis! 😍

Thank you for being with us yesterday and happy !

Yesterday was 🐬🐳 Apart from taking part in the World Oceans Day event at Alliance française de Bangkok, we also had a chance to join “The Plastic Ocean Swimming Challenge” at Bangkok Prep International School.

Ever wonder how those fish swim with plastic?
It must be a thousand times worse than this with all the plastic bag, straw, plastic bottle, plastic net etc etc 😭

At the end of the day, we did not forget to help each other separate all the bottles that we used and clean up nicely. Thank you everyone for joining and support us.

เมื่อวานเนื่องด้วยเป็นวัน หรือวัน(รัก)ทะเลโลก นอกจากกิจกรรมที่เราได้ไปจัดกับสมาคมฝรั่งเศสแล้ว เรายังได้ไปร่วมกิจกรรมThe Plastic Ocean Swimming Challenge ที่ Bangkok Prep School หรือการว่ายน้ำในขวดพลาสติกนั่นเองค่ะ

เคยสงสัยไหมคะว่า พวกปลาในน้ำจะรู้สึกยังไงที่ต้องว่ายน้ำกับพลาสติก? ในทะเลจริงๆจะต้องลำบากกว่านี้แน่ๆไหนจะ ทั้งขวด ถุง เชือกพลาสติก หลอดทั้งหลาย

ท้ายงาน พวกเราก็ไม่ลืมที่จะแยกประเภทของพลาสติกและช่วยกันเก็บกวาดให้เรียบร้อย และนำพลาสติกไปรีไซเคิลต่อด้วยนะคะ ขอบคุณทุกๆคนที่มาและคอยสนับสนุนเราค่ะ
