The beauty of the ocean, the life it contains and the services and resources it provides are part of humanity’s shared heritage and shared future. But the health of our ocean is under immense pressure from both intensive human activity and climate change.
Despite its importance and the threats it faces, the ocean remains the least observed part of our planet. As a result, there is no global picture of all human activity at sea and we cannot truly understand humanity’s impact on life below water.
We believe human activity at sea should be common knowledge in order to safeguard the global ocean commons for the common good of all. That’s why our purpose is to create and publicly share knowledge about human activity at sea to enable fair and sustainable use of our ocean.
