We’re working with the Blue Marine Foundation to protect turtle hatchlings in the Dutch Caribbean. To date, we’ve protected the equivalent of 12,000 hatchlings and have no intention of stopping anytime soon…
Only 1% of hatchlings in the Dutch Carribean live to adulthood due to human impacts including ocean pollution and beach distubance.
Through our 2% to the Wild Pledge and Turtle Conservation designs, we’re able to help protect hatchlings as they take their first flip flop steps to the ocean, giving them the very best shot at reaching adulthood. From moving endangered nests, to preserving beaches and guiding the baby turtles through the early stages of life, the funds raised will help to secure the future of this beautiful keystone species.
“Turtles play an incredibly important role in the underwater world; from providing key habitats for other threatened marine life to balancing the nutrients of the delicate beach ecosystem and sustaining the food web. I’m so excited that with your help, we’ll be able to do our own special bit for this species.”
Blue Marine’s mission is to see 30% of the world’s ocean under effective protection by 2030. They are dedicated to creating marine reserves, restoring vital habitats and establishing models of sustainable fishing.
