Protecting Oceans, Preserving Life
The ocean is home to 80% of life on Earth, yet marine species are disappearing at an alarming rate due to overfishing, habitat destruction, and climate change. Without urgent action, we risk losing entire ecosystems that sustain both nature and humans.
Coral reefs, which support 25% of marine life, are expected to decline by 90% by 2050 due to rising sea temperatures.
Every minute, a truckload of plastic enters the ocean. From microplastics in fish to massive floating garbage patches, plastic pollution is suffocating marine life and poisoning the food chain.
Over 700 marine species, including whales, turtles, and seabirds, have been affected by plastic ingestion or entanglement.
Oil spills and toxic waste leaks create dead zones, where marine life suffocates due to lack of oxygen. These disasters can take decades to recover from, permanently altering coastal and deep-sea environments.
The Deepwater Horizon spill in 2010 released over 4.9 million barrels of oil, devastating ecosystems across the Gulf of Mexico.
The ocean covers 71% of our planet and produces 50% of the oxygen we breathe. It regulates climate, provides food, and sustains economies. Yet, it's one of the least explored and most endangered ecosystems on Earth.
Scientists estimate that 80% of the ocean remains unmapped, holding countless undiscovered species.
The deep sea is the largest and least known part of the planet. Creatures like bioluminescent jellyfish, vampire squid, and giant tube worms thrive in complete darkness.
The Mariana Trench is the deepest part of the ocean, stretching over 36,000 feet—deeper than Mount Everest is tall.
Ocean currents distribute heat, regulate weather patterns, and transport nutrients across the globe. However, human activities are disrupting these delicate systems, leading to extreme weather and ecosystem collapse.
The Great Ocean Conveyor Belt moves water across the planet in a cycle that takes 1,000 years to complete.
Plastic, chemical spills, and industrial waste are turning oceans into toxic dumps. We actively remove debris, advocate for cleaner industries, and promote zero-waste policies.
In 2023 alone, we removed over 50,000 tons of plastic from critical habitats.
Rebuilding habitats is key to ocean survival. Our projects restore mangroves, coral reefs, and seagrass beds, ensuring that marine life has a safe home to thrive.
Our coral reef restoration efforts have increased fish populations by 45% in affected areas.
Unregulated fishing is destroying marine ecosystems. We work with policymakers to establish sustainable fishing zones, reducing bycatch and protecting marine species from extinction.
Overfishing has caused the decline of 90% of large fish populations in the last century.
Oceans absorb 25% of CO₂ emissions, leading to acidification and rising temperatures. We push for carbon reduction policies, develop marine-protected areas, and fight against coral bleaching.
The ocean has absorbed enough heat in the last 50 years to equal the energy of 3.6 billion atomic bombs.
Together, we can make a difference for our oceans and all the life they support.
