World Ocean Day is 8 June! No matter if we live on the coast or far inland, we all need a healthy ocean to survive and thrive. By protecting our ocean, we also protect our climate, and our future.

This year, AIDA has been invited to join The Ocean Project and the World Ocean Day Youth Advisory Council to help unite the world in taking action on an issue of critical importance.

This year, World Ocean Day and its global network will support the growing movement to protect 30% of our blue planet by 2030 (“30x30”).

You can join together with the rest of the World Ocean Day community and the global movement to help achieve this ambitious and necessary goal!

Help the growing movement for 30x30 right now by signing the petition to support 30x30 as an individual!

Looking to get more involved on World Ocean Day? Check out the global event map and join a celebration online or near you! This year activities, events, and celebrations will be held both virtually and in person, depending on the current situation with the pandemic. Also be sure to follow @worldoceanday on social media and join the countless people worldwide sharing love for our blue planet! To stay involved the other 364 days a year, subscribe to the World Ocean Day email list!

And remember...World Ocean Day is 8 June every year, but we can all help every day! No matter where we live, we all affect the ocean, and the ocean affects us.
