That’s why responsibility at Mocamar takes concrete form. Some of it is financial. Some of it is physical. Some of it is about sharing what we learn. Each addresses a different part of the same reality - the impact of making things.
We commit three percent of our revenue to organizations and projects where protection is tangible, not abstract.
Our current focus is Florida and the United States - the ecosystems and species we are directly connected to through geography, materials, and daily work. Not because they matter more, but because responsibility starts where proximity exists.
Every quarter, we publish a transparent report detailing the exact amount donated, the organizations supported, the purpose of each contribution, and its geographic focus.
Where the 3% goes
Marine wildlife & vulnerable species
We support organizations working to protect marine animals such as sea turtles, manatees, and other species living in Florida’s threatened ecosystems. The focus is on habitat protection, not symbolism.
Marine debris removal & fishing-gear recovery
We also support projects that remove marine debris from coastal waters, including the recovery of ghost nets and abandoned fishing gear. These efforts create direct, measurable improvements to marine environments.
Coral reefs, coastal ecosystems & mangroves
We support initiatives focused on protecting and restoring coral reefs, mangroves, coastal ecosystems, and the Everglades. These environments aren’t scenery. They are living systems that stabilize coastlines, regulate climate, and sustain both marine and terrestrial life.
Monthly Beach Cleanups
Some forms of responsibility can’t be outsourced. We organize and participate in regular beach cleanups along the Florida coastline. Not as events. As routine. Being close to the material means being close to where it comes from.
The waste we collect informs our understanding of plastic - what survives, what fails, and what never should have existed in the first place. Some materials return into experimental processes. Most don’t. The point isn’t transformation. It’s presence.
Education
Education, for us, starts with making consequences visible. We believe that understanding materials early changes how people treat them later.
That’s why we’re developing ways to work directly with schools and kindergartens through tangible experiences. Showing how plastic waste behaves, where it ends up and how it can be treated differently. As part of this, we’re exploring hands-on formats:
- Demonstrating how a simple PET bottle can be turned into usable filament.
- Opening our workshop to school groups.
- Inviting classes to take part in beach cleanups and material collection.
The goal isn’t to teach solutions. It’s to build awareness and curiosity about how materials move through the world. These initiatives are currently in development and will evolve over time, as we learn what creates the most meaningful impact.
