Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Creators and Causes Ocean and Marine kit?

The Ocean and Marine subcategory profiles 15 creators and organisations focused on ocean health and restoration. It includes The Ocean Cleanup (25M kg of plastic removed), SeaTrees (blue carbon restoration), Mission Blue (Hope Spots network), and Oceana (the largest international ocean advocacy organisation).

Is the Ocean and Marine kit free to access?

Following ocean-focused YouTube creators and reading organisation content is free. The organisations themselves are nonprofits that rely on donations and partnerships. The Ocean Cleanup and similar groups accept individual contributions.

Why is ocean health important to the green transition?

The ocean absorbs roughly 25% of annual CO2 emissions and generates over half of Earth's oxygen. Coastal ecosystems like mangroves and seagrass meadows are among the most efficient carbon sinks on the planet. The organisations in this kit are directly protecting and restoring those systems.
