Balloons are the universally recognized icon of celebration and bring happiness to millions annually. Whether celebrating a birthday, graduation, wedding, the opening of a new business, or comforting someone when they are sick, balloons are ubiquitous tokens of affection that create smiles and joy like no other product can. Loving balloons and loving the environment are not mutually exclusive. This is why the CRC highlights reputable, third-party data from governmental, non-profit, and academic sources to encourage policymakers to consider the benefits of public education on smart balloon practices and responsible use.

BALLOONS & THE ENVIRONMENT

Independent data provides evidence that balloons are neither a major threat to sea life nor a leading contributor to ocean litter.

RESPONSIBLE BALLOON USE, NOT BANS.

Educating the public on smart balloon practices is an effective tool to encourage responsible use.

BALLOON BANS HURT COMMUNITIES

Balloon bans are outsized responses that hurt communities in both economic and personal ways. 

SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainable practices and innovations in balloon manufacturing are advancing environmental responsibility and product quality.
