Aloha guys! As an official spokes-sea lion of the National Sanctuary Program, I have been asked to find out what's got the sea creatures all bubbled up about in the Pacific.

It's a good thing that I have friends all over the world! My sea turtle friend, Hawaiian Brian, is surfing in Hawai'i right now! I was able to get a hold of him in the middle of one of his surf sessions to ask him what all the commotion is about.

Well, as you can imagine, he had a lot to say:

"Well dude, I was surfing this gnarly wave in Waikiki yesterday when all of a sudden I wiped out on this major set of garbage that was floating around! It was totally disgusting dude!"

Those were the words of Hawaiian Brian! Looks like our trash is finding its way into the ocean!

Why don't you guys help! If we can all get our friends to help, we can fix this terrible problem! Let's keep our beaches clean: don't trash where you splash! Check out our video here.

A hui hou!
