 I regularly get requests from people asking where they can learn more about the ocean and how our actions affect it, and every time I struggle to point to a single, easy-to-follow, comprehensive resource.

NON-TECHNICAL OVERVIEW

The Ocean and Us provides an easy-to-digest, fact-based overview of our contemporary understanding of the ocean and the issues it currently faces, as well as suggestions for things we can all do to help improve ocean health.

FROM POLLUTION TO POLICY

The Ocean and Us offers a comprehensive, cross-discipline insight into our relationship with the ocean, including topics such as the links between coastal communities and sustainability, oceans and human health and intersectionality in the ocean space. ​

WOMEN-LED AND POWERED

The Ocean and Us brings together over 30 experts from the Women4Oceans network, including Dr. Helen Findlay on climate and the ocean, Kristina Gjerde on ocean governance, Dr. Sarah Harper and Dr. Colette Wabnitz on the Blue Economy, and Dr. Easkey Britton on Oceans and Human Health.

​ABOUT THE EDITOR


​"My name is Farah Obaidullah. I am a long time advocate for healthy oceans and the founder of the Women4Oceans platform. A platform that promotes ocean health and that connects, amplifies and inspires women who work in the ocean space. People know that our actions are destroying the world’s oceans and they want to learn more about what is at stake and how they can make a difference. The issue of plastic pollution is arguably the only area that is now more widely understood as being a threat to ocean health. I believe everyone with an interest in the ocean will benefit from this volume and that it will be an inspiring and empowering tool for readers everywhere."

From the magic book club website: Timely, informative and absolutely fascinating, this is a dive into the deep sea and all that it encompasses. Editor Farah Obaidullah brings together over 35 specialists on the ocean, who impart wisdom on its geography, health, and threats. With us all looking to be more conscientious, 'The Ocean and Us' allows for a comprehensive look at our individual impact and the ways in which we can be more informed and effective in our fight against environmental degradation. It's Farah's hope that we can all walk away having a greater understanding of our watery surroundings and inspire us all to be invested in its future.
