How to help the oceans
Saturday, June 8 is World Ocean Day, although it might not seem like there’s much to celebrate this year.
From rising ocean temperatures to plastics in the water and dying coral reefs, there’s a lot to worry about.
But everyone can make small changes that make a difference.
Meanwhile, many organizations are tackling the “big picture” issues.

The Coral Reef Alliance combines new technology and conservation techniques to save the world’s reefs.
The Surfrider Foundation and The Ocean Conservancy work on the many challenges facing our oceans.
The goal of Earth Island Institute’s Plastic Pollution Coalition is to rid the world of toxic plastic pollution.
