“Our oceans cover 71% of the earth’s surface, and their health is climate health. The oceans regulate weather patterns and produce half of the oxygen we breathe. Some of the planet’s most important processes happen where sea and air meet, as oceans absorb and redistribute heat and carbon. SeaLegacy works in service of restoring and conserving our oceans in a meaningful way. Through critical education, action, and sustainability initiatives, SeaLegacy does immeasurably important work necessary to turn the tides on the climate crisis.”
