March for the Ocean
People are mobilizing to March for the Ocean on June 9th, 2018. A broad and diverse constituency is working to promote ocean solutions for the problems that threaten our blue planet. Environmentalists, scientists, surfers, divers, students, parents, teachers, celebrities, fishermen, social justice advocates, small businesses, major aquariums, deep-sea explorers and citizen activists. Everyone who gets so much from the ocean (and that's all of us) is mobilizing to give something back!

OUTLAW OCEAN MUSIC PROJECT:
WHERE MUSIC MEETS JOURNALISM
All music in this project is based on THE OUTLAW OCEAN, a New York Times best-selling book by Ian Urbina that chronicles lawlessness at sea around the world. The reporting touches on a diversity of abuses ranging from illegal and overfishing, arms trafficking at sea, human slavery, gun-running, intentional dumping, murder of stowaways, thievery of ships, and other topics. The music is an act of solidarity across geography and language, and an attempt at storytelling from written word to music. It is a captivating collection of inspired songs. Take your pick: listen to ambient tracks, classical, electronic or hiphop.
