Ocean Plastic Pollution: The Responsibility Is On Us All
January 19, 2022
Leading Ocean Research, Conservation & Education that Informs the Public & Encourages Action in The Bahamas and Caribbean since 1970.
The ocean needs our help, now more than ever. And the Perry Institute for Marine Science is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that does just that.
Working in The Bahamas and Caribbean, we restore coral reefs – the dazzling “rainforests of the sea” – and replenish vital fisheries. We also revitalize coastal habitats like mangrove forests, and conduct research that shapes new Marine Protected Areas.
But we can't do this without you. Educating people and communities is a vital part of our work.
The Perry Institute for Marine Science conducts and supports a wide range of research and education to help protect our oceans.
Read our blog to learn about coral reefs, fisheries, Marine Protected Areas, endangered species, climate change and our latest education programs.
The Reef Rescue Network rehabilitates coral reefs alongside a network of communities, divers, organizations, dive shops and volunteers throughout the Caribbean. We build coral nurseries, and coordinate their maintenance, management, outplanting and monitoring with our partners in The Bahamas, St. Lucia and Aruba.
