Oceana Philippines

Kapag #AtinAngKinse ang pinaglaban, mayroong trabaho, kita, at dignidad ang mga pamilyang Pilipino sa baybayin.

Hindi ito laban lang ng mangingisda — laban ito ng bawat Pilipino. 🌊🇵🇭

When we stop the wars against nature—overfishing, plastic pollution, and habitat destruction—we give both the people and the planet the chance to heal. 💙

Marine Protected Areas stand as ocean sanctuaries where ocean life can recover. Inside well-managed MPAs, fish grow bigger, populations become denser, and biodiversity thrives.

Ocean Myth BUSTED! Dolphins are ALWAYS friendly. While dolphins are curious and playful, they ARE wild animals. They can be territorial or defensive. The best way to appreciate them is by observing responsibly in the wild where they truly belong! 📷Candeze Mongaya

Is your 5-minute convenience worth more than a lifetime of damages? 😢💔

Oceana lauds Northern Samar provincial gov’t for adopting science-based fisheries management and committing to post-harvest and market support

Lost fish means lost income and less food. As fisheries struggle to meet demand, climate change and overfishing worsen the problem. (2/2)

Actions are being taken in Northern Samar: bit.ly/4ehHnB7

#ProtectOurOceans (2/2)

OUR OCEANS FACE VERY REAL THREATS. Attacks come from all fronts—-from the impacts of climate change to destructive human activities that result in pollution, overfishing, and habitat destruction. We can't fight this on our own. 😨🆘

Hahayaan ba nating lalong masira ang karagatan sa pagpasok ng komersyal na mangingisda sa 15-km katubigang sana'y para sa ating mga artisanong mangingisda lamang? (2/2)

Pagwasak ng tirahan ng iba't ibang uri ng lamang dagat 🦈🪸🐙
Paghuli ng mga lamang dagat na hindi dapat na kinukuha 🎣❌
Walang habas na paghuli sa maliliit na isda na magdudulot ng pagkaunti ng fish stock---🐟 (1/2)

Isang malaking hamon para sa mga artisanong mangingisda ang kawalan ng post-harvest facilities upang mapanatiling sariwa ang huli o madagdagan ang kita. Pakinggan ang kuwento ni Mylene. #ProtectOurOcean #ProtectOurFisherfolk #ValentinesDay #LoveMonth

Ano ang alay mo ngayong Pebrero? (2/2)

Ngayong buwan ng mga puso, ipakita natin ang pagmamahal sa karagatan sa iba't ibang paraan! Mula pagtanggal ng single-use plastics sa ating pang-araw-araw, hanggang sa pagprotekta sa karapatan ng ating mangingisda---naparakami nating magagawa! (1/2)

Ocean Myth BUSTED!😮💡 🌊
These plastics continue to affect marine species, remote coastlines and are found sitting at the deepest point of the ocean floor. 🌊🗑️⛟
