Ocean Wise decided to get in the spirit this holiday season with gift suggestions that serve a greater purpose. Ocean Wise has a collection of sustainable gifts that help animals, and our environment. You can buy a gooey pile of drone-harvested whale snot to help finance scientists who study the snot to find out what kind of illnesses the whales might be experiencing. If snot isn’t your thing, you can buy an ID tag to help keep track of rescued seals, or even tasty snacks for otters.

There are plenty of options to choose from, all of which use your money to promote conservation efforts. Once you choose your gift, you are able to personalize an eco-friendly e-card, which will tell your loved one about the extra special gift you bought for them this year. And since you get an e-card, there’s no wait for anything to ship! You can give a thoughtful gift even though you waited until the last second.

The vice-president of Ocean Wise, Jeremy Douglas, said that they hope that this form of gift-giving will help make a donation a fun holiday activity. The idea is to get people directly connected with what their gift does for animals. If you have an environmentally inclined person that you love, we highly recommend making a gift on their behalf this holiday season! Ocean Wise and many other organizations have wonderful and festive ideas to make holiday giving fun. Donations to charitable organizations are the gift that never gets returned or stuffed in a drawer, and contributions that benefit our environment are the gift that actually keeps on giving.
