Covering 30% of our planet, the ocean is vital to life on Earth. It shapes our climate, produces over half the oxygen we breathe, and sustains millions of people through food, travel and trade. From the weather outside your window to the everyday products in your home, the ocean’s influence is woven through every part of our lives, keeping it healthy is essential for our future.
By helping people understand the ocean, we open the door to a deeper connection with nature and our planet. Ocean literacy sparks curiosity, empowers people to make informed choices, and reveals just how much the ocean supports us all. By sharing this knowledge, we can protect it today and inspire future generations to do the same.
NOC’s podcast, Into the Blue, brings you in-depth conversations with oceanographers and ocean advocates from around the world. Now spanning three seasons, you can listen or watch on your favourite podcast platform or on YouTube.
