| 19th November 2020
Snoop Dogg is starring in a hilarious new ad – where he hangs out with a sea turtle.
The commercial shows the 49-year-old enjoying life’s ‘small things’ – including a festive meal with his dog, daughter and son – all of whom resemble the Doggfather himself.
The Hip Hop star, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, also enjoys a spot of baking before enjoying a drink of fizzy water with his aquatic friend.
Its makers hope that it will inspire the nation to celebrate the small but meaningful things this Christmas – and to raise awareness of how the tiniest of changes can help the planet.
SodaStream also carried out research which found eight in 10 believe everyone can make a positive difference to the environment by making small tweaks to their lifestyle.
A spokesperson for the company, said: “We hope viewers will find our new advert funny but there is a serious message behind it.
“This year we really went all in to deliver a campaign everyone can relate to, a campaign on what’s important.
“SodaStream is one small change people can make to reduce single-use plastic waste, and Snoop Dogg is a great partner to help widely spread this message in a fun way.
“No matter how small, we can all make a difference when it comes to helping the environment.
“And as the results show this is a view shared by most people – and it really is inspiring to see all the different ways the nation is doing their bit.”
The Drop It Like It’s Hot rapper added: “I love my SodaStream so it was natural for me to partner up with them for this campaign.
“They make a great product and a big difference in the world – I am happy to help spread the love!”
Brits have also revealed the ‘little’ ways they’re helping the local community and the planet – including turning off the tap when brushing their teeth, donating to food banks and insulating their homes.
Using reusable water bottles, reducing meat intake and car sharing are also ways people are playing their part.
Other little adjustments adopted in recent months include putting out food for birds and animals, using energy efficient bulbs in the home and growing their own fruit and veg.
It also emerged that eight in 10 believe the UK population ‘generally’ has become more receptive to making small changes for the good of the planet.
More than three quarters have cut down on their use of single-use plastics in the last 12 months – with carrier bags, water bottles and straws the top three items they’ve used less of.
Other small changes include avoiding products containing palm oil, buying an electric or hybrid vehicle and boycotting products which have an unnecessary amount of packaging.
