Ocean Wise turns knowledge of the ocean into action for the ocean.
Our ocean is the air we breathe, the food we eat, and even the water we drink. But our ocean is in trouble. Issues like pollution, overfishing, and rising global greenhouse gas emissions pose an enormous threat to our ocean’s health.
The Be Ocean Wise campaign builds and engages audiences committed to fighting climate change, reducing plastic pollution, feeding people by restoring fish stocks, supporting next generation leaders, and protecting whales.
This month, we're ready to make a splash around Earth Day and we want YOU to #BeOceanWise. Help us stop plastic pollution, from source to shore.
