Parley AIR Summer Challenge

The oceans give us life. We give them plastic. Let’s invent our way out of this. Together.

 
 
 

 Parley AIR is the strategy to end marine plastic pollution—and your invitation to participate. Everyone has a role to play. Start by taking the Parley AIR pledge, then put words into action with our summer challenge.

 
 
 
 
 

STEP 1: BAN ONE PLASTIC ITEM FROM YOUR LIFE

STEP 2: SHARE YOUR PLEDGE ON SOCIAL WITH #ParleyAIR

STEP 3: TAG OTHERS TO CHALLENGE THEM TOO

 

 
 

Porter x Parley is calling on the fashion community to step up and make a pledge with #ParleyAIR and #PlasticNotFantastic. Learn more about the summer challenge and Porter Magazine's 'Summer Escape' issue dedicated to the cause
