Plastic in the Ocean
Plastic, the most common form of persistent marine debris, is one of the most pressing issues in marine ecosystems.
Seagrass
Seagrasses are flowering plants that grow in shallow waters along the coasts of every continent except Antarctica. Seagrasses provide critical ecosystem services and are a reliable source for carbon sequestration.
Blue Carbon
Blue carbon is the carbon dioxide captured by the world’s ocean and coastal ecosystems, stored in the form of biomass and sediments from mangroves, tidal marshes and seagrass meadows.
Human Rights and The Ocean
Human rights violations occur not only on land, but also at sea. Human trafficking, corruption, exploitation, and other violations, combined with a lack of policing and proper laws, is the reality of much ocean activity.
