Addressing Climate Change
Several organizations are focusing on ocean conservation projects that directly address climate change. These projects include the restoration of coastal habitats such as mangroves and seagrasses, which act as carbon sinks and help mitigate the impacts of climate change. Additionally, efforts are being made to reduce carbon emissions from shipping and fishing industries through the implementation of sustainable practices and technologies.
Combatting Plastic Pollution
Organizations are also actively working to combat plastic pollution in the oceans. This includes initiatives to clean up plastic waste from coastlines and implement policies to reduce single-use plastics. Furthermore, there is a focus on promoting recycling and developing innovative solutions to prevent plastic from entering the ocean in the first place. These efforts aim to protect marine life and preserve the health of ocean ecosystems.
