A BIT ABOUT POSITIVE CHANGE FOR MARINE LIFE:
Positive Change for Marine Life dismantles the old narrative that the ocean exists for us to exploit. Through our core values of understanding, education and respect, we empower communities to take action for our ocean, developing long-term initiatives which benefit the sea, as well as those who rely upon it for survival. We work with a broad spectrum of people from diverse backgrounds including businesses, fisherfolk, community organisations, students, faith groups, activists, political institutions and individuals – to realise the value of a healthy ocean and the long-term environmental, social and economic benefit that it provides. Our key focus is to address marine debris and pollution, which is having a devastating impact on marine ecosystems, as well as on human health. We also focus on the potential that waste management, up-cycling and ecotourism can have on transitioning coastal communities away from exploitative industries, whilst improving health, creating employment opportunities and protecting the ocean in perpetuity.
