Marine Conservation Is In Trouble — Why People Aren’t Concerned About the Ocean

Marine conservation is in trouble — and the biggest problem isn’t just pollution or overfishing. The real issue is that people are becoming disconnected from the ocean, and that lack of concern is threatening marine ecosystems worldwide. In this episode, I’m reporting from Oahu, Hawaii, where I’ve witnessed firsthand the troubling signs of ocean health decline — and why fewer people seem to care.

 

Ocean protection is critical, but public interest in marine issues is fading. People aren’t engaging with the pressing issues of climate change, coral reef degradation, and marine biodiversity loss the way they used to. If we can’t shift this narrative and rebuild a connection with the ocean, conservation efforts may fail.

 

Sustainable ocean management and marine advocacy are more important than ever. I’ll share why this disconnect is happening, what it means for the future of our oceans, and how we can take meaningful action to change course. Tune in to discover the truth about marine conservation — and why restoring our connection to the ocean is key to saving it.
