Engage your teams for the Ocean — discover the “Ocean” digital Challenge with Surfrider × Energic

Mobilising employees over the long term on ocean-related issues requires innovative, accessible and measurable formats. This is precisely the aim of the new “Ocean” challenge, co-designed by Act! with Surfrider and Energic.

In practical terms: over a 4-week period, through an app or web platform, each participant spends just 3 minutes a day completing challenges, answering quizzes and exploring educational content, individually or as part of a team. This makes it easy for geographically dispersed teams, remote workers or shift-based staff to get involved.

The challenge addresses the full spectrum of ocean-related topics — marine litter & plastic pollution, water quality, biodiversity, climate, responsible consumption, digital sobriety, sustainable mobility, and more.

Why this format?

• It engages profiles who are not always familiar with these issues, fostering a collective dynamic.
• It requires no logistics or physical meeting space, making deployment simple and fast.
• It generates tangible data: number of eco-actions, individual carbon reduction, participation rates — valuable indicators for sustainability reporting.

And the results

Participation rates reach 70–90% in SMEs and 50–60% in larger companies. By the end of the programme, average individual carbon footprint reductions can reach up to 15%.

For committed companies, it is both a simple and powerful lever: embedding a sustainability culture, mobilising teams around ocean protection, and highlighting the collective impact of everyday actions.
