Creating ocean activists everywhere.
World Ocean Day - 6 Days to Go
The ocean is the blue heart of our planet providing oxygen, life, shelter, food, livelihoods, activity and a sense of wellbeing. If you’re reading this, chances are you know how vital the ocean is to the future of our planet.
That’s why World Ocean Day is important, not just to us as a charity, but to everyone around the world. It's also 4 days ahead of the G7 summit, a pivotal moment where key decisions on climate change will be formed in the run up to COP26.
Whether you can join us in person or online, for every event or through a simple share, take part in World Ocean Day. Let’s celebrate the big blue together and remember what it is we’re fighting for.
For the Ocean,
Team SAS
