The ocean is the defining feature of our planet.
It allows for all life to exist on Earth. We all
depend on a healthy ocean.
Ocean Literacy is
the understanding of the ocean’s influence
on you and your influence on the ocean.
Through the Ocean Literacy Network, scientists,
educators and policy makers are working together
to improve Ocean Literacy worldwide.
Through this website you can explore:
- The Ocean Literacy Network to
find out who’s involved, what has been accomplished
and why you can’t be science literate without
being ocean literate.
- The
Ocean Literacy Framework to find
out the seven ideas everyone should know about
the ocean—and how to teach or learn about
them;
- Ocean Science Research to keep abreast
of the latest discoveries;
- Getting Involved to find groups to
join, conferences to attend, actions you can
take, and ways to share what you’re doing;
- Ocean Literacy News (via the links in
the right sidebar or the link in the footer) to
