A healthy ocean matters to all living things from whales to people. A healthy ocean depends on everyone’s actions. A healthy ocean for all means working together to understand our impact and taking action to protect and restore. Make a pledge to Do the Right Thing for right whales and the ocean to which we are all connected.

There are many challenges for whales and a healthy ocean. I can make a positive change in my community, for right whales and for the ocean by taking the following action(s).

Turn off the lights, TV and video games when I leave the room

Conduct a home energy audit

Contact my energy provider about green energy options

Switch out light bulbs for compact fluorescents or LED’s

My own idea:

Turn off car instead of letting it idle

Ride my bike, walk or take public transportation

Car pool

Purchase an energy efficient vehicle

My own idea:

Bring my own reusable bags to the store when I go shopping

Not use plastic drinking straws and encourage others to do the same

Use a reusable water bottle instead of a disposable one

Find out where the things I use (food, clothes, etc.) come from and buy local

My own idea:

Sign a petition for a clean ocean, sustainable fishing, or whatever ocean cause is important to me

Contact my elected officials-representative, senator, president- about a cause important to me

Get involved in my community - volunteer, talk to my mayor and town council about green initiatives for my community

Tell my family, friends and neighbors about how I do the right thing for my community, the ocean and whales and why it is important. Encourage them to join me in working together for a better planet.

Lead by example - organize a community or beach clean-up, encourage your school to use less plastic or save energy or plant a garden!
