| Statement of Purpose: |
The mission of the Colorado Ocean Coalition is to create, unite and empower a Colorado coalition with shared values, goals and actions to promote healthy oceans through education and community engagement.
Until now, there has never been a unified voice for ocean protection in the Mountain States. The Colorado Ocean Coalition believes that you don’t have to be near the
ocean to care about it. Our
complex global economy and the
interconnectedness of ecological
systems mean that the actions we
take in the mountains impact the
health of the sea. These actions
include eating seafood, using
plastics, driving cars and sharing environmental ethics with our family and friends. We live on an ocean planet and the choices we make in the middle of the country have direct ties to the seas. |
