Our Mission

Why do we do what we do?

We do what we do because we want as many people as possible to realise the beauty and importance of the oceans and its creatures.

We want the people to know and understand the effects of climate change, overfishing, and pollution, feel outraged about it, and act.

We want people around the world to reclaim respect for, and guardianship of, the oceans and its life.

We want the people to know that we cannot let greed of a few cause the extinction of so much beauty and life in the oceans.

We want that people understand that, without life in the oceans, there will be no life on the land. We are interdependent.

It is our mission to motivate people to protect our oceans and fight climate change.
