Join the fight to keep the ocean healthy for marine wildlife like reef fish, sea turtles, polar bears and whales, and for the people whose lives and livelihoods depend on it
Join with Ocean Conservancy and fight to protect our greatest resource
A healthy ocean provides us with the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. By working to keep the ocean healthy, Ocean Conservancy is keeping us healthy as well.
That's why Ocean Conservancy uses the best in science-based solutions to tackle the largest ocean conservation challenges we face—from the danger of trash in our ocean and waterways to the depletion of our fisheries, and even the changing chemistry of the ocean.
When you join Ocean Conservancy, you're making a difference for a healthy ocean for everyone. Clean water and clean beaches, vibrant marine wildlife, a thriving ocean to power our economy, a healthy and sustainable food supply—this is our shared vision.
These are benefits that don't just help those that live in the ocean—like sea turtles, polar bears and whales—but people too, as our lives and livelihoods depend on the ocean.
Your Support is Critical to Our Success
For 40 years, we've brought science-based solutions to the most pressing ocean conservation issues of our time:
- Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanups have mobilized more than 9 million volunteers to remove 145 million pounds of trash from our coasts and waterways, protecting wildlife and people alike.
- We have helped protect critical ecosystems in the Pacific, by fighting for oil spill prevention and response programs, pushing for labels on genetically engineered salmon, and building support for a ban on the sale of shark fins.
- Our experts have worked in the Gulf to guide ecosystem restoration in the wake of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil disaster and in the Arctic to force a timeout on oil and gas activity until we're sure our pristine waters remain clean and healthy.
Every day, we fight for a healthy ocean for the wildlife -- sea turtles, polar bears, whales -- and the people whose lives and livelihoods depend on it. It support from people like you who make our successes possible.
