Protecting Pacific Coral Reefs

Thank you for signing the recent petition to President Bush, supporting permanent protection of marine national monuments in US- controlled waters in the Pacific. For an update, click here.


 
How We Fish Matters

MCBI is proud to announce the release of our newest analysis of fishing methods: How We Fish Matters: Addressing the Ecological Impacts of Canadian Fishing Gear. Bottom trawling is destroying the once pristine oceans of our northern neighbor.

High Seas Gems

MCBI released High Seas Gems: Hidden Treasures of our Blue Earth at the 2008 World Conservation Congress, in order to highlight special places in the least protected place on earth - the high seas.
