I was not aware of Project Aware, thank you. It seems similar in purpose to the Ocean Conservancy, to which I belong. I certainly will seek them out, as protecting our reefs and oceans should be paramount.

I was also unaware of Project, er, Aware. Thanks for the heads up, will be passing it along.

Thank you for posting this. Just noticed it as I was catching up on my RSS feeds. It's heartening to see a nicely crafted production that helps get the message out in a positive way. Yesterday I posted on Jeremy Jackson's take on ocean damage: The danger of shifting baselines. Hopefully the health of the oceans will gain traction as a major policy issue.
