Our Work

Our ocean is truly awesome, but it is not invincible

Our ocean produces half the world’s oxygen, absorbs 90% of the excess heat from climate change and supports millions of species and billions of people. But the ocean’s bounty is under threat. Ocean Conservancy is a U.S.-based organization that works globally to protect the ocean. We work on protecting biodiversity, advancing climate solutions and preventing ocean plastics. Together, we are securing a healthy ocean and a thriving planet, forever and for everyone.
