“Since its debut almost 25-years ago, SpongeBob SquarePants<\/i> has become globally beloved for its contagious optimism and irreverent humor, but at its core the series has always had an intrinsic connection to the sea leading us to launch SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change<\/i> to help protect the home of the very creatures that inspired Bikini Bottom,” said Veronica Hart<\/span>, Executive Vice President, Global Franchise Planning, Paramount Consumer Products. “With this initiative not only are we funding change but reinventing how we do business by creating a connected global effort around sustainability, while also being afforded the opportunity to honor the legacy of the incomparable Stephen Hillenburg<\/span>, Marine Biologist and SpongeBob SquarePants<\/i> creator, who was so deeply committed to preserving our oceans and marine life.”<\/p>\n

At launch, the program will mobilize a network of global non-profit partners that further the goals of SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change<\/i>. These efforts, which have been funded through grants from the SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change<\/i>Fund<\/i> at Tides Foundation, aim to help protect the ocean from plastic pollution and biodiversity loss through on-the-ground clean-up events in cities around the world. Paramount Consumer Products will also work with licensing partners to launch SpongeBob branded products that feature zero or reduced single-use plastic\u00a0and rally consumers to get active through education and information about conservation-focused organizations they can support.<\/p>\n
