World Oceans Day - June 8th


Hey All,

June 8th is the World Ocean Day.  Together we unite to protect the oceans!

World Oceans Day has been celebrated since 2008 around the world to appreciate oceans on its marine life and contribution to our life.  The Ocean Project and its partnership with World Ocean Network has been promoting World Oceans Day since 2003 with its network of over 1,600 organizations and others throughout the world. The group has been working very hard to create awareness of marine life and how it is important for people to help protecting them.  

Many activities had been organized previous years namely beach cleanups, educational programs, film festivals, sustainable seafood events and many other activities that relates to ocean awareness.

Fellow Malaysians have also contributed many good cause during WOD.  Many events were organized in previous years by NGOs, universities, schools and many concern parties.  This year, Malaysian Nature Society will organize Snorkel & Dive Perhentian Island 2013. 

So friends, if you love our oceans, please do your part to join any of these events for the sake of our future generations.
