Celebrate World Ocean Day

Today is World Ocean Day. What is World Ocean Day?

Created in 1992 at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro – although not yet officially designated by the United Nations – World Ocean Day is an opportunity each year to celebrate our world ocean and our personal connection to the sea. The Ocean Project, working closely with the World Ocean Network, helps each year to coordinate events and activities with aquariums, zoos, museums, conservation organizations, universities, schools, businesses.
