The TerraMar Project is a non-profit organization on a mission to create a global community to give a voice to the most ignored, least explored part of our planet - the high seas. Why do we care?The ocean covers 71% of the planet, and nearly 64% of that is considered the high seas, belonging not to a single country but to all of humanity. The ocean provides half the oxygen we breathe and absorbs half of the carbon dioxide emissions created by fossil fuels. The fishing industry employs 200 million people--97% of which call a developing nation home--and provides the primary source of protein for more than a billion people. But 87% of fisheries are considered exploited, overexploited or collapsed, the oceans have been acidifying at an alarming rate from the carbon they are absorbing which is threatening ecosystems worldwide, and marine debris in the form of plastics is killing millions of ocean creatures annually and is finding its way into our very diets as a result of its ingestion by fish throughout the food chain.The TerraMar Project is using the power of our community to be a catalyst for positive, meaningful change for the ocean. Through engagement, education, and advocacy, we are raising the profile of the ocean in people's lives and THE DAILY CATCH is an important piece of this puzzle.
