The international moratorium on commercial whaling is one of the greatest conservation successes of the 20th century. We campaign to keep the ban in place, to expose the exploitation of species it does not cover and drive action to address other threats to whales, dolphins and porpoises

The ocean covers two-thirds of our planet and is home to an astonishing array of unique animal and plant species. From the microscopic phytoplankton which form the basis of the marine food chain, to the immense blue whale – the largest animal to have ever inhabited our planet – the biodiversity in our ocean is truly staggering.

Our Ocean work focusses on three threats to the marine environment and biodiversity: plastic pollution, fishing gear, and commercial exploitation of cetaceans (whales, dolphins and porpoises).
