a small organization with a big impact!

Blue Frontier, “The Voice for Ocean Action” organizes people who care about our blue planet to impact policy and promote solutions to the many challenges facing our living seas. 

For over 20 years Blue Frontier has been able to generate ocean media at the local, national and global level. This work includes eight books, several hundred articles, opinions and documentary videos appearing in major media such as the New York Times, NPR and National Geographic. Blue Frontier has also conducted media training workshops for scientists, youth and others, created the ‘Writers for the Sea’ project, established an online Blue Movement Directory describing over 1,200 ocean conservation groups. Its Rising Tide Ocean podcast has aired for over 6 years and plays on a number of radio stations.

Blue Frontier’s policy and network building has included six DC-based Blue Vision Summits that have connected thousands of grassroots activists with policy leaders.These multi-day summits have included Capitol Hill Ocean Days where constituents from across the nation met with their elected representatives and advocated for ocean conservation measures. Blue Frontier has also sponsored several regional summits. Congressional leaders including Representatives Nancy Pelosi and Jared Huffman and Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Jeff Markley have spoken of the vital role Blue Frontier plays in creating ocean law and policy.
