About This Collection

As a result of a United Nations General Assembly resolution passed in December 2008, World Oceans Day is celebrated on June 8th each year. This annual event spurred the creation of a special collections around our oceans and the efforts being made in conservation ranging from pollution to habitat restoration to fishing and fisheries.

The special collection continues to grow along with Plastic in Our Oceans and 1Water, with a focus on the challenge of providing clean drinking water to the world population.

Atlantic puffins are quite the lovebirds | Oceana
April 21, 2023

Atlantic puffins are monogamous, forming strong bonds by rubbing their beaks. They return to the same burrow annually to raise their young, called pufflings.

Support these "lovebirds" by making a symbolic puffin adoption. Your donation helps protect puffins and other marine life: Adopt a Puffin.
