O UR MISSION
For every product sold, United By Blue removes a pound of trash from our world's oceans and waterways.
To Date
We live for heavy lifting, whether that means massive amounts of old tires, a half-buried boat, or thousands of pieces of styrofoam along a shoreline. For eight years, we’ve been organizing and hosting volunteer events across the country to fulfill our promise of cleaner oceans and waterways. What we’ve got so far:

Sustainable Textiles, Less Waste Our mission is to eliminate waste from the world’s waterways — by picking it up and preventing its presence from the start. That means choosing materials that minimize waste every step of the way, from the farm to the factory.

RE CYCLE D PO LYE ST E R
Traditional cotton farming is a major contributor to global waterway pollution. Organic cotton = 0 pesticides = happy oceans.
Your old plastic water bottles = our soft, longlasting recycled polyester. That means less plastic in landfills, less petroleum dependence, and clothing that can eventually be recycled itself.
HE M P

This miracle fiber requires no pesticides and minimal water to grow. Bonus points: it’s one of the lightest and most durable materials out there, and it’s UV resistant.
A super soft and breathable material that comes from eucalyptus trees, which don’t require pesticides or irrigation.

WE LOVE TO SHARE THE STORIES OF OUR PLANET’S CARETAKERS: WATCHDOGS OF THE WAVES, WOODS, AND WILDLIFE.
this time:
Mote Marine Laboratory
Consider them the fulltime adoptive parents to more than 31,000 coral specimens, all housed at their field station in the Florida Keys. “There’s no book on this,” laughs staff biologist Joey Mandara on raising the next generation of the region’s fastdisappearing coral. Joey and team are 6 6 Shop 6 Shop Shop Now Now Now atatunitedbyblue.com unitedbyblue.com at unitedbyblue.com 1.866.931.1143 1.866.931.1143 1.866.931.1143
(figuratively) writing it. On the sun-soaked morning we meet, he and his crew are quickly shuffling through aisles of outdoor tanks filled with fledgling coral. They rely upon groundbreaking, and often unconventional, techniques developed by Mote’s Program Manager of Coral Reef Restoration Dr. David Vaughan to mature specimens up to 8 times faster than nature can. Vaughan was the first to apply revolutionary microfragmentation processes (outlined on p.12) to large-scale restoration, forever changing the world of coral conservation.
Mote’s Program Manager of Coral Reef Restoration Dr. David Vaughan

Today, crew members hover over tanks, hands submerged, headphones on. Coral polyp parenthood is a painstaking process. The Mote team meticulously removes debris and notes water temperature, salinity, and PH on overstacked clipboards. Once a year, they even work as matchmakers for successful coral mating. (More on that on pg. 24) As fragments mature, Mote outplants them to reefs rooted in the Keys’ crystal blue waters. There, they assume their vital role in the ocean ecosystem, serving as a habitat for marine life and a natural barrier against hurricane tides.
“ It’s a cool experience to plant something that will be here long after you’re gone.” The entire rearing process can take up to 5 years, but according to Joey, it’s never too hard to say goodbye. “It’s a cool experience to plant something that will be here long after you’re gone,” he says. Considering many coral species boast lifespans of well over 1,000 years, we’d say they’re raising them right. Free Exchanges + Easy Returns

Similar to the way succulents can be propagated through the planting of a single leaf, coral can multiply through Mote’s innovative process of microfragmentation. Here, Lindsay and Kirsten carefully saw pieces into strips, which are then glued to concrete plugs. After months of maintenance, the pieces eventually expand and fuse into larger formations.

Repopulating Florida’s reefs requires meticulous attention – and a little romance. Here, how Mote uses coral’s natural reproduction process to expedite restoration. STEP 1: Meet slightly off shore under the August full moon (Mote’s coral only release eggs in late summer). STEP 2: Paddle to nearest reef. STEP 3: Wait for tiny coral eggs to float to the water’s surface.
Scoop up as many as possible.
STEP 4: Guide eggs to their potential match. 24 24 Shop Shop NowNow at unitedbyblue.com at unitedbyblue.com 1.866.931.1143 1.866.931.1143

The UBB Cross-Country Cleanup Road Trip In eight years, we’ve removed more than 1,000,000 lbs of trash in 27 states. Now, we’re on a mission to clean the rest of them (and figured out a legit way to get out of the office all summer while we were at it). UNITEDBYBLUE.COM/CLEANUPS
