BlueAware by Zero Waste Foundation: Türkiye’s Global Marine Awareness Campaign at Climate Week NYC
The Republic of Türkiye’s Ministry of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change, as the principal organizer of the initiative, together with the Zero Waste Foundation, launched the “BlueAware” global awareness campaign during Climate Week New York City 2025. Hosted under the honorary leadership of H.E. Mrs. Emine Erdoğan, First Lady of Türkiye and Honorary President of the Zero Waste Foundation, the campaign calls on the international community to protect the world’s seas and oceans from escalating pollution and environmental degradation.

The Zero Waste Foundation is a foundation established in 2023 under the auspices of H.E. Mrs. Emine Erdoğan. The purpose of the foundation is to disseminate the Zero Waste Project and ensure its sustainability.
The Blueaware campaign launch event was unveiled at the “Drop by Drop” Exhibition at historical Guastavino’s in New York City. The event reflects Türkiye’s ongoing environmental diplomacy, combining art, climate science, and policy to highlight the urgency of safeguarding marine ecosystems.
Speaking at the launch, H.E. Murat Kurum, Minister of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change, underlined the urgency of protecting marine life and combating plastic pollution:
“Our blue is fading, growing more polluted each day. Protecting our seas and oceans means protecting life itself. Every drop of water is a promise for our breath and our future.”

He added “Through BlueAware, we aim to secure one million digital pledges and foster partnerships across more than 30 countries. This is a call for global unity, because pollution knows no borders. From the shores of Lake Van and Lake Salda to the depths of the Izmit Gulf, Türkiye’s Zero Waste Blue projects have proven that restoration is possible when determination meets collaboration.
He mentioned that The Zero Waste initiative, spearheaded by First Lady Emine Erdoğan, has been formally recognized by the United Nations and gained significant global momentum. The BlueAware campaign expands this vision with a marine-focused call to action: “Are You Blue Aware?” The program underscores that protecting the blue oceans, seas, and freshwater ecosystems is inseparable from ensuring a sustainable future for humanity.
H.E. Murat Kurum, Minister of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change emphasized in his opening remarks that the campaign represents not only Türkiye’s national responsibility but also a universal mission: “Every effort to protect the blue is a gift to future generations. This is not only about Türkiye’s waters but about humanity’s shared destiny.”

Following the Minister’s remarks, Samed Ağırbaş, President of the Zero Waste Foundation, highlighted Türkiye’s ongoing initiatives:
“Our actions today shape the health of our oceans tomorrow. By embracing zero waste in our daily lives, each of us can make a difference”
He also emphasized Türkiye’s continued support for the Zero Waste Commitment, encouraging individuals and institutions worldwide to contribute to the pledge and integrate zero waste principles into their daily lives.
In addition, Samed Ağırbaş announced the upcoming Zero Waste Forum, which will take place in İstanbul from 17–19 October, bringing together stakeholders to share experiences and advance the zero waste movement.
Are You Blue Aware? Protect What Connects Us
The BlueAware campaign introduces a new global platform, www.blueaware.org, inviting individuals, institutions, and governments to sign the “Pledge to the Blue” declaration. Backed by UNEP and UN-Habitat, the campaign seeks to amplify awareness through youth engagement, digital outreach, and artistic interventions. Key campaign outcomes and targets include:
- 30+ partner country and institutional endorsements,
- Community-driven initiatives empowering youth and civil society,
- Enhanced visibility ahead of the 2026 UN Ocean Conference.
H.E. Murat Kurum, Minister of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change highlighted the campaign’s sobering facts; “Over 150 million tons of plastic already in oceans, 70% of sharks and rays lost in 50 years, and over one million seabirds and marine animals dying every year.”

The Zero Waste Blue Exhibition
The Zero Waste Blue Exhibition transformed Guastavino’s into a multi-dimensional space for environmental storytelling.
- Conservation achievements in Lake Van, Lake Salda, Lake Meke, and Lake Beyşehir, as well as the Izmit Gulf Clean-Up, were presented.
- The Turkish Environmental Agency (TÜÇA) showcased innovative mooring buoy projects and coastal protection initiatives.
- The Zero Waste Foundation introduced the “Drop by Drop” installation, inviting visitors to experience the fragility of marine ecosystems.
The exhibition also featured the announcement of the upcoming International Zero Waste Forum (17–19 October 2025, Istanbul), further extending Türkiye’s leadership in global sustainability dialogue.
The New York launch is poised to strengthen Türkiye’s global standing in environmental policy, elevate the Zero Waste Blue brand on the international stage, and act as a catalyst for new partnerships during Climate Week NYC 2025. With the participation of global thought leaders, academics, and civil society representatives, the panel sessions transformed the exhibition into a true forum for dialogue on marine protection.
“Blue is life. Waste is not. Today we renew our collective responsibility. Are you BlueAware?” concluded Minister Murat Kurum. He emphasized the broader significance of the event: “Here in New York, we demonstrate that environmental diplomacy can be as powerful as treaties. BlueAware is a bridge from Türkiye to the world uniting governments, organizations, artists, and young people in one mission: to protect the blue.”

HONOLULU, Hawaii
A disabled U.S. veteran in Hawaii is calling for independent federal review, media attention, and whistleblower support regarding what he describes as years of alleged political corruption, law enforcement misconduct, cyber interference, and obstruction of public reporting.

The veteran says he has compiled extensive video and website documentation outlining his concerns, including alleged attempts to disrupt his online access, limit his ability to communicate with officials, and prevent his claims from reaching federal authorities, civil rights advocates, media organizations, and whistleblower support networks.

According to the veteran, the materials he has published contain evidence related to alleged misconduct in Hawaii and repeated cyber incidents that he believes are intended to keep the matter from broader public scrutiny. He is requesting that appropriate federal agencies, civil rights organizations, investigative journalists, and veteran advocacy groups review the materials and determine whether further investigation is warranted.
“As a disabled veteran, I am asking for my evidence to be reviewed fairly and independently,” the veteran said. “I believe the public deserves transparency, and I am seeking help from people and organizations with the authority, platform, or legal experience to examine what has happened.”


The veteran has made information available through several public platforms, including X, Truth Social, Rumble, YouTube, and his website. He says the materials include personal accounts, documentation of alleged cyber incidents, and related evidence intended to support his request for outside review.

The publicly listed channels and pages include:

The veteran is asking federal civil rights officials, law enforcement oversight bodies, media outlets, legal advocates, and whistleblower organizations to review the information and help ensure that any credible evidence receives appropriate attention.
“This is a request for lawful review, transparency, and accountability,” the veteran said. “I am not asking anyone to take my word for it. I am asking them to examine the evidence.”
