| Happy 2008! |
Welcome the New Year by getting inspired for ocean conservation!
Our world ocean needs your help. No matter where you live, you are connected to the ocean in many ways, from the water you use and the air you breathe, to the seafood you may eat and the special places you treasure for recreation and enjoyment along the coast.
Each of us can learn and do more to protect the ocean for future generations.

Three for me...

- Get Informed! The more you know about the ocean and how your actions affect it, the better you'll appreciate your ocean connection and be able to protect it. Start here.
- Join in January! Become a member of your local aquarium, zoo, science museum, or nature center. Find one near you.
- Stay in tune with the ocean. Our ocean is constantly changing and so are the threats facing it, ocean policies, and the resources and opportunities available to help protect it. Stay in tune with the ocean by signing up for Blue Planet News to Use.
