In the wake of Trump's hatred of diversity, equity, and inclusion, the Healthy Ocean Coalition wants to reiterate that we will not self-censor. We stand even more firmly in support of our members. Diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice make the world a better place. Full stop.

Do you love marine life? TUNE IN: House Committee on Natural Resources hearing on protections for marine life–whales, dolphins, sea turtles, and more 🐋🐬🐢🪸. Meanwhile Trump wants to let Big Oil donors ignore species protections and pollute our coasts. 👎

Policy and advocacy are personal and so is our approach. Since 2015, we've trained more than 300 leaders through our Healthy Ocean Advocacy Academies. We are building a wave of ocean action and climate justice one person at a time.

It’s VALENTINE’S DAY and we are here with some messages of love and support for NOAA!!

Presidents Musk and Trump and their "yes" people are working to dismantle the invaluable agency from the inside and we need to lift up its importance in our daily lives.

Tell us why you love NOAA! 🌊💙

Trump’s Day 1 executive actions on our ocean threaten our beautiful coasts and degrade crucial protections for marine life. We will keep fighting for the future our ocean, climate, & communities deserve–in Congress, in the courts, and across state and local governments.
