New Delhi

Jacqueline Fernandez, with much talked about projects in her
kitty, is surely gonna have a good 2017.
However, it is not just movies on her mind now, she is all
ready to take up social causes as well.
The 'Roy' star will associate herself with the cause of marine
conservation as she plans to lend support to the environmental cause, in order
to save marine life.
Jacqueline shares, 'Around the world, marine ecosystems
are being threatened, degraded, damaged or destroyed by human activities, one
of which is pollution. Taking a stroll along any beach or a ride on a ferry,
one will get an idea of just how much litter is floating around in the form
of the sand strewn with plastic bottles, fish boxes, light bulbs, flip-flops,
scraps of fishing net or timber.'
Further adding, 'The scene is the same the world over,
for the seas are full of garbage. I've witnessed this many times on the ferry
to Alibaug or to Madh Island and it's an extremely disheartening sight. I really
feel we need to educate people and spread awareness on Marine conservation.'
The thought of marine conservation has been always in her mind
and the actress is looking forward to creating awarness on the cause.
'We can start with the smallest of steps to contribute
towards Marine Conservation, like restricting or reducing our use of plastic
products as plastic end up as ocean debris contributing to habitat destruction
and entangling and killing tens of thousands of marine animals each year. We
can also help by not littering beaches and waterways, disposing off waste in
an environmentally safe way and reusing and recycling whenever possible,'
she said.
On a related note, Jaqueline will be next seen in 'Reload,'
alongside Siddharth Malhotra.
