How can you help
The Problem
Our oceans are in decline and need help. From the depletion of coral reefs and fish stocks to increasing ocean temperatures, oil spills and micro-plastics, human activity threatens fragile marine ecosystems that are vital to the health of our oceans and all life on earth. First responders, stranding networks, and numerous organizations work to advance global ocean conservation through marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation, scientific research, and education programs. Although protected by the U.S. Marine Mammal Protection Act, and despite increasing public and scientific interest, State and Federal funding for marine mammal research and stranding response is minimal and extremely competitive.
The Solution
As a result, there is an increased need for funding to support the people and organizations that work on the front lines to rescue and rehabilitate marine animals for return to their native environments. There is also a need for sustained funding for long-term research programs, such as population ecology, health, and environmental risk assessments. Funding from each State's specialty license plate will be used to support and sustain long-term research and conservation programs that work to rescue, conserve, and protect endangered, protected, or threatened marine species.
