David Helvarg's "50 Ways to Save the Ocean" program, from the Blue Frontier Campaign, empowers individuals to protect our oceans. We've developed teaching guides for grades 9-12, featured on National Geographic's Ocean Education website, to inspire the next generation of activists. His book is available on Amazon.

We are creating K-2 lesson plans, and funding is vital to complete them, expand educator outreach, and enable presentations by Helvarg and cartoonist Jim Toomey (creator of Sherman's Lagoon).

The Blue Frontier Campaign leads efforts to protect our oceans, coasts, and dependent communities. Support our mission via our crowdfunding page.
