A legacy for our oceans
For many years, gifts in Wills have inspired incredible victories for our oceans. Learn more about how your support can power our nature campaigns and give a voice to vulnerable ecosystems worldwide.
Our oceans are one of the most biodiverse and beautiful places on the planet. They sustain life for thousands of species, are a vital source of food and livelihoods of billions of people worldwide.
But our oceans are under threat like never before. Oil drilling, industrial fishing and the development of new, harmful practices – like mining the seabed – threaten many species with extinction. Vulnerable habitats are being devastated by pollution, as plastic, oil spills and chemicals toxify the water. And the effects of climate change are pushing marine ecosystems to the brink of collapse.
For decades Greenpeace scientists, campaigners and activists have exposed crimes on the high seas, launched groundbreaking research, and fought alongside local communities to show the scale of destruction and lobby politicians to finally put the natural world first.
Together, we have secured vital protection for our oceans. People like you have helped to realise a once in a generation Global Ocean Treaty, to create a network of ocean sanctuaries in every sea across the world. We’ve brought experts and scientists to the most remote places in the world, diving down to fragile ecosystems on the Antarctic seafloor and the Amazon reef. We’ve banned microplastics from polluting our rivers, sounded the alarm on sewage spilling into our waterways and stopped Shell from drilling in protected Arctic waters.
Again and again, you’ve shown that together we can protect our oceans against impossible odds. Now, we need to ask you to do something amazing to keep our natural world safe for generations to come.
With a gift to Greenpeace in your Will, you can make sure we’re always ready to fight back against nature destruction. You can help us confront the companies responsible and the politicians willing to ignore the problem – long into the future.
