About Our Partnership with Planet Oat
Oceanic Society has been receiving support from Planet Oat since 2020 as part of their Planet Oat Project, the brand’s pledge to support organizations that better the world we live in. In August 2021, Planet Oat brand ambassadors joined Oceanic Society staff and partners on a special expedition to Belize to explore the Mesoamerican Reef and document the ocean research and conservation work taking place there. During the expedition we gathered footage to produce a short educational film about the value of sustainable tourism to ocean conservation in Belize and worldwide, released in early 2022.
Planet Oat’s support this year will go toward our global programs to connect people to the ocean and build a movement dedicated to solving the key ocean problems of our time, from plastic pollution to unsustainable fishing and aquaculture and climate change. We look forward to sharing more information about our partnership throughout the year.
Happy Earth Day!
Earth Day is an annual event held each April 22 to demonstrate support for environmental protection and celebrate our shared home. We hope that wherever you are and however you choose to celebrate Earth Day in 2022, that you will find some time to enjoy and appreciate all that our beautiful planet has to offer.
