Mission Statement

Blue Frontier's mission is to give people who care about the ocean the tools needed to protect their communities, both human and wild.

Description

Founded in 2003 by award-winning journalist and author, David Helvarg, with the support of leading ocean advocates, Blue Frontier has worked to bring the economic, environmental, recreational and spiritual benefits of healthy and abundant seas to the public. We've done this through books, articles and videos, A decade of Peter Benchley Ocean Awards, Blue Vision Summits and citizen lobbies, sponsorship of ocean explorers and youth events, the first global "March for the Ocean and other initiatives that can impact law, culture and policy.

Today we're working to promote an Ocean Climate Action Plan, a Blue Beat of media projects and trainings, and the protection of an endangered headland in a low-income community of color. Through our efforts and partnerships we provide practical support for communities, both human and wild, from sea to shining sea.
