Ted Danson>> The good news is that it is not too late. We can solve these problems. We
can save our oceans. Founded in 2001, Oceana is the largest international ocean protection
group in the world, and is headquartered in Washington DC, with offices in New England,
Alaska, Oregon, California, Chile, Spain, and Brussels. We have more than 300,000 supporters
and members in over 150 countries. Our worldwide teams of scientists and economists study and
report on the conditions of everything from fish populations to mercury levels, from fish
markets to what's safe for your child's lunchbox. This scientific information enables us to
work with governments, corporations, and fishermen around the world to create and enforce laws
and policies that will help restore the oceans' health. Oceana goes where the oceans need
us: from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, from the
Arctic to Antarctica.
And the good news is: Oceana's campaign method of ocean conservation is working. In just
a few years, we've begun to turn back the tide of ocean destruction.
