Every day, our ocean faces more and more challenges.
The climate crisis is accelerating, environmental protections are under attack, and pollution continues to infiltrate our communities and ecosystems. In times like these, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed.
That’s why, to celebrate World Ocean Day, we’re choosing hope. We want to share a few wins from 2025 that you made possible. These victories are proof that progress is happening and that your commitment is making a real difference.

For 26 years, the Coastkeeper community has fought for swimmable, drinkable, fishable waters for all. We’re scientists, educators, advocates, and everyday people working together for a cleaner, more just water future.
Thanks for being part of this fight. And Happy World Ocean Day!
