Take Action!

Join the movement to protect our ocean

Reuse > Waste

If we don’t act now, by 2030 (in just seven years!) plastic production will contribute 1.3 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere—the equivalent of 300 coal-fired power plants. Help keep our ocean plastic-free by calling on Congress to support the REDUCE Act and curb the production of new plastics.

Keep Plastics Out of our National Parks

Currently, 11 million metric tons of mostly single-use items enter the ocean each year solely from land-based sources. Take action by urging your senators to support the Reducing Waste in National Parks Act.

Strengthening the National Environmental Policy Act

One of the basic principles of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) is to give the public a voice. Now, it’s our turn to use our collective voice to support new, positive changes that emphasize the consideration of environmental justice and climate impacts.

Support a Just Transition Away from Dirty Fossil Fuels

There is no reason to allow big oil to continue polluting our ocean and our homes when clean-energy alternatives are available and ready to be implemented. Act now for a cleaner and healthier ocean.

Clean Up the Shipping Industry

The shipping industry pollutes as much annually as all of America’s coal plants combined. Take action to urge Congress to pass the Clean Shipping Act, which sets a clear, bold path to achieving zero-emission shipping in the U.S.

Scrubber Wastewater is Bad for Our Ocean

Some ships have “scrubbers” that enable them to use the world’s dirtiest fuels and dump the resulting pollutants into our ocean in the form of extremely toxic wastewater. Take action to ban harmful scrubber wastewater.

Offshore Drilling is Environmental Injustice

We’ve seen how catastrophic oil spills have been for our ocean, marine wildlife, people living in coastal communities and coastal economies. Take action to urge Congress to phase out dangerous, dirty offshore drilling.

We Need Ocean Climate Action

Coral reefs are lifelines of the sea. We need to take action to combat climate change and protect coral reefs before it’s too late.

Permanent Protections for Our Ocean and Coasts

Call on our elected leaders to take action and ban the expansion of offshore drilling in the Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean and Eastern Gulf of Mexico.

Clean Energy Climate

We Need Ocean-Powered Climate Solutions

We need your help to ensure the ocean is the home of climate solutions, not polluting fossil fuel industries who put our ocean, and all those who depend on it, at risk.

Protect Our Coastal Communities

Let's pass the Coastal Habitat Conservation Act to protect our coastal communities for generations to come.

Ocean Trash Wildlife

Protect Our Ocean from Plastics

Octopuses can't hide from ocean plastics. Help keep our ocean trash-free by telling Congress to support legislation that cuts down on ocean plastics.

Ensure Congress Fully Funds NOAA

The work of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) ranges from the depths of our ocean’s floor all the way up to the reaches of space. As the climate crisis continues to wreak havoc, NOAA’s science, conservation, climate and weather missions are more important than ever before.

We Must Protect Manatees

Manatee deaths are skyrocketing, and it’s clear that this towering Floridian icon needs our help. Will you take action now to put the manatee back on the endangered species list?

Save the Endangered Species Act

The Endangered Species Act has helped preserve countless species, and rollbacks to this legislation would quite literally be deadly. Take action to protect this critical safeguard.

Ocean Trash Wildlife

Reduce the Production of Plastics

Despite calling our ocean home, sea turtles & their babies are also dependent on clean, healthy beaches. Protect them by calling for a minimum 50% global reduction of single-use plastics by 2050.

Turn the Tide on Plastic Pollution

To tackle the ocean plastics crisis, we need to make less plastic. Join Ocean Conservancy in calling for source-reduction policies for the most common items polluting our shorelines and waterways around the world.

Fighting for a Plastic-Free Ocean

Plastic production has become a crisis for our ocean and coastal communities. We must act now.

Tiny Plastics = Big Problem

Microplastics are plastic particles that are incredibly dangerous to our ocean. We need advocates, like you, to help keep our ocean—and our beloved sea animals—plastic free.

Support a Just Transition Away from Dirty Fossil Fuels

There is no reason to allow big oil to continue polluting our ocean and our homes when clean-energy alternatives are available and ready to be implemented. Act now for a cleaner and healthier ocean.

Take Action to Safeguard the Arctic

Increasing vessel traffic in the Arctic could put wildlife and local communities at greater risk from oil spills, accidents and pollution. Join us and tell the Coast Guard you support its efforts to protect Arctic waters from the impacts of increasing ship traffic.

Clean Energy Climate

Phase Out Offshore Oil and Gas

Clean ocean energy solutions are critical to reducing emissions and averting the climate crisis. We need to ensure the ocean is home to climate solutions, not polluting fossil fuel operations that put our ocean at risk.

Offshore Drilling is Environmental Injustice

We’ve seen how catastrophic oil spills have been for our ocean, marine wildlife, people living in coastal communities and coastal economies. Take action to urge Congress to phase out dangerous, dirty offshore drilling.
