Polo South Africa & Zandi The Mermaid | Xanita

“Our actions over the next 10 years will determine the state of the ocean for the next 10,000 years” - Sylvia Earle.

It’s just one plastic bottle”, said seven billion people. Each one of us leaves a mark on our planet, and right now, our oceans are crying for help.

This World Oceans Day, join us and Polo South Africa in standing with Zandi the Mermaid to fight against plastic waste, and its catastrophic effects on our marine ecosystem. Our oceans are drowning in plastic, and it’s time to make a change.

We were delighted to design and craft this beautiful installation, that focuses on displaying and educating the public about sustainability and cleaning up the ocean. The activation was well received by the public on the 28th May to the 3rd of June. With Zandi’s story being displayed. “Each and every one of us leaves a mark behind. It’s in our power to make the world a little better for the next person. We are all part of one ecosystem, whether you’re on land, or beneath the surface of the water, “ says Zandile Ndhlovu.

The ocean is the lifeblood of our planet, and it needs our protection now more than ever. If you missed the Polo South Africa stand you can view some glimpses of it below, showcasing how plastic waste is wreaking havoc on our seas and learn how you can make a difference.
Together, we can create a healthier, more sustainable future for generations to come. Let’s choose the sea, choose the planet, and choose a better tomorrow.
