Synopsis
How can we save the ocean? And how can the ocean save us?
From protecting nesting sea turtles on the beaches of Sri Lanka and deep-sea diving in the icy waters of Antarctica to taking school children in England to see the sea for the first time, award-winning marine biologist Emily Cunningham has seen and felt the wonder of the ocean. She's also seen it changing.
Our Ocean to Save is an urgent call to action, drawing on her years of experience to paint a global picture of the state of the ocean, what its future may hold and what you can do to meaningfully help our greatest climate ally.
Emily encourages us to rethink our relationship with the ocean, offering practical solutions that we can all incorporate into our busy lives. Our Ocean to Save is packed with sustainability tips to help the ocean at home and work, showing you how to become a citizen marine biologist, as well as offering powerful advice for how to engage with your elected representatives and make your voice heard. Wherever you are on your ocean conservation journey, and no matter where you live, this book will help.
While our seas are in peril, this is a book of hope, a guide to what the future of the ocean, and the future of humanity, could look like, if only we take action. After all, it’s our ocean to save.
