Blue Planet Strategies is working to help our clients and partners tackle the significant challenges that threaten the world’s oceans. Scientists believe that 99 percent of the livable environment on earth is found in the oceans, and the health of the world’s oceans is critical to life. However, our oceans are facing an unprecedented assault of complex human created problems, including climate change, which is reaching a crisis point. Through our work, we hope to make significant contributions to conserving the world’s great whales, transitioning fisheries to sustainable ecosystem-based management, reducing the impacts of climate change on ocean habitat and wildlife, and leaving the world a better place for future generations. Here is some of our work:
- Saving North Atlantic Right Whales
- Developing “Whale-safe” Fishing Gear
- StrikeMaps: A Global Center for Whale Ship Strike Mapping and Prevention
- Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument
- Protecting the Ocean’s Food Chain
- Effects of Climate Change on Marine Mammals
- OceansWide: Educating the Next Generation of Marine Technicians and Ocean Explorers
