Together, we can protect our oceans and their inhabitants from the threats of pollution, overfishing, and climate change. Join our community of ocean advocates and take action for a healthier planet.

Our oceans are full of wonder and beauty, but they're also in peril. Learn about the challenges facing our marine ecosystems and how you can help through our educational resources and events.

You don't have to live near the coast to make a difference for the oceans. Our local chapters organize beach cleanups, lobby for policy changes, and more. Find a group near you and get involved.

PADDLE BOARDERS: one person or a whole group can cover a lot of shoreline just by getting together on the weekend. Here is what one man accomplished.... the 1st media article garnered a massive team. A picnic at sunset cemented the team. One lake, with over 200 miles of shoreline was claimed by many paddle boarding teams on a tracking map. When the word spread through social media other friends and family volunteered, collectively cleaning 1,000's of miles of fresh and salt water shorelines. The media articles went viral spreading to Linked In, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram sharing the effectiveness around the world and the constant need to be vigilant to protect the source of 80% of our oxygen.    https://www.castanet.net/news/Vernon/270316/Okanagan-Kal-lakes-are-lot-cleaner-after-lots-of-hard-work

PADDLE BOARDERS please note: Paddle Boarders can see and reach what Volunteers doing shoreline cleanup or monitoring can't see. Dropping a waterproof camera, like Pro Cam 4, on a secure line into the water will show disgusting garbage... sofa's etc. A Pro Cam 4 camera under a dock shows who used styro foam illegally for buoyancy. Make note of the address and call the local By-Law office anonymously. Never approach the dock or floating dock owner ! And, if you see By Law infractions on shore follow the same procedure please, note the address and call By Law anonymously. Especially when you see discarded large plastics which the sun and rain/snow will break down into tiny pieces as they inch toward the waterway, which ultimately leads to an ocean.
