Heal the Bay
The Majestic Plastic Bag
Sundance Film Festival Official Selection, Hommage Ville Des Cannes ACT Responsible Tribute, Bronze Clio, Aspen Shortsfest Official Selection, Newport Beach Film Festival Official Selection, Cannes Film Lions Shortlist, Webby Nomination for Public Service and Activism
This is a short film created to educate the masses about plastic pollution in California's oceans and the problems posed by the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It helped to pass numerous measures across California, and now internationally, banning the use of single-use plastic bags in chain grocery stores, something I will be proud of for the rest of my life.
Narrated by Jeremy Irons
Directed by Jeremy Konner

The Plastic Bag Virus
To raise awareness about plastic pollution, we bring the plague directly to your computer screen. Heal the Bay’s plastic virus allows you to take any web address and overlay it with continuously populating plastic trash. We spread the cause through spreading the experience.
Trash someone you love today!! Click on any image below or visit: trashed.healthebay.org
Heal the Bay Landing Page
On the Heal the Bay site, a person can sign a letter to the state assembly member voting against plastic bag pollution, read more about the facts, and most importantly trash their friends’ sites.
Each site you trash can be sent to your friend with a custom bag-monster message.
Once sent, your friend will receive a seemingly normal link that leads them to a “trashed” version of that site.
Every time you click even more bags populate the page. After 15 seconds the Heal the Bay pop-up window delivers our messaging, asking the user to sign the ballot, or trash their friends.
Reference: See cornify.com
Users can also post to their facebook feed for all to see.
If someone does happen to opt-out, a counter pops up showing roughly how long it takes plastic to break down in the ocean.
