The sea is such a wondrous place with forests, reefs and caves.

The water is their haven; it’s the only home they know,
There are countless creatures living in a world beneath the waves. While ‘The Up’ is somewhere unexplored, where most
will never go.
One night, when Blub the octopus “Hello,” said Blub. “You must be new. I’ve not seen you around.”
was sleeping in her bed, But the fish refused to answer her – it didn’t make a sound.
She was woken by a stranger, who
had landed on her head.
As days went by, more strangers came who also didn’t talk. It wasn’t long before they started getting in the way,
They were drifting down but didn’t seem to scuttle, swim or walk. Causing harm to all the creatures as they tried to swim and play.
Blub wanted to be friendly so she greeted those she found, “Whoever are you talking to?” she asked. “There’s no one there.”
But a manta ray called Manti swam up next to her and frowned. “It’s these fish,” said Blub. “They’re new here but they only sit and
stare.”
“These things aren’t fish,” said Manti. “They’ve just fallen
from The Up.
They are human things with silly names like ‘bottle’,
‘bag’ and ‘cup’.”

“But don’t the humans need them?” wondered Blub,


a bit confused,
And they hatched a plan to send them back to
where they could be used.
She then began to throw things, first with
one arm, then with eight.
Having lots of arms for throwing was
a really useful trait!

The Up was quite a scary place but Blub was feeling brave,
So she swam towards the surface, where she bobbed upon a wave.
“Let’s dive back down,” said Manti, “and collect up even more.” It wasn’t long till other creatures started cleaning too,
So they gathered lots of objects and returned them to the shore. From across the seas and oceans; from the Arctic to Peru.
The creatures threw some items… The humans moaned and grumbled as the clutter
clogged their space.
“We should throw it back to sea,” said one.
“This mess is a disgrace!”

...then some others…

...then some more,

And created many massive piles of rubbish on the shore.


A little boy saw Blub and all the creatures in the bay. He stood upon a rock and then began to make a speech:
“It’s not fair,” he said. “If we don’t want this rubbish, why “We should really find a better way to tidy up the beach!”
would they?”
The people soon took action as his plea was understood, They quickly worked together till the beach was litter-free,
And they sorted all the rubbish to reuse the bits they could. So the things no longer needed wouldn’t end up in the sea.
When all the waste had gone, the humans gathered by the shore, They tried to use less plastic and, instead, did all they could
And they promised that the things they used would harm the sea no To use eco-friendly objects made from glass, bamboo and wood.
more.
The creatures smiled and cheered because the ocean
was now clean.
It was safer and much nicer when their home was
so pristine.

The water is their haven; it’s the only home they know,
And The Up’s now full of people who protect what’s down below.
