GOAL

Ocean currents concentrate plastic in five areas in the world: the subtropical gyres, also known as the world’s "ocean garbage patches". Once in these patches, the plastic will not go away by itself. The challenge of cleaning up the gyres is the plastic pollution spreads across millions of square kilometers and travels in all directions. Covering this area using vessels and nets would take thousands of years and cost billions of dollars to complete. How can we use these ocean currents to our advantage?

BECOME THE SOLUTION

WHAT WE DO

Whale Shark RESCUE is one of our primary initiatives. 

Every day these magnificent animals are put in danger by the activities of thoughtless fishermen and boaters.

​

 

DYNAMITE FISHING

The Whale Sharks greatest enemy is without doubt humans. Dynamite fishing is devastating. Practiced in Asia it is responsible for more Whale Shark deaths than almost anything else.

 

SOLUTION

Education of local fishermen and the public has already begun to see change

 

NET ACCIDENTS

Many Whale Sharks get tangled in nets every year. This can cause great distress, pain and in some cases death.

​

 

SOLUTION

Our foundation intends to set up a quick response group that are able to get to help facilitate the release of the Whale Shark as well as the education of local fishermen on what to do if this happens

 

WHALE SHARK STUDY

We want to be able to offer cutting edge research facilities for Marine Biologists and those dedicated to studying the migration, breeding and life cycle of the Whale Shark.

 

SOLUTION

Our foundations' goal is the setup of premier research facilities right in the hub of Whale Shark territory around the world. Beginning with Belize we also bring Whale Shark experiences to the public in a safe non-intrusive manner that encourages public support and understanding for the Spiritual Shark

 

OUR TEAM

Our team is committed to doing their part in cleaning up our oceans. It's because of them that we are able to give back to the communities around us. To become part of our volunteer team, please contact us to find out how you can partner with us to clean our planet.
