Our hope is that people will look these creatures in the eyes, and be inspired to care, while there is still time.

Sapienship
Yuval Noah Harari's Sapienship advocates for global responsibility through its mission: to clarify the global conversation, to focus attention on the most important challenges, and to support the quest for solutions.

SeaTrees
The ocean—and its ecosystems—will play a central role in addressing climate change, and Michael Stewart and SeaTrees are enabling all of us to join the fight.
Salesforce ran this "The New Frontier" Superbowl ad: (Youtube: 1m0s) telling viewers, "while the others look to the metaverse and Mars, let's stay here and restore ours...Cause the new frontier? It ain't rocket science. It's right here." Marc Benioff's Salesforce has a lot of well developed projects under way. One of those they highlight is SeaTrees: Everyday People Creating Climate Solutions | (Youtube: 11m0s)
"SeaTrees directly supports communities and scientists who protect and regenerate blue-carbon coastal ecosystems. This includes planting mangrove trees, restoring kelp forests, coral reefs, seagrass meadows, and conserving coastal watersheds."

UN Sustainable Development Goals (Global Goals)
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) or Global Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked global goals designed to be a "blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all." The SDGs were set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly (UN-GA) and are intended to be achieved by the year 2030. The 17 SDGs are: (1) No Poverty, (2) Zero Hunger, (3) Good Health and Well-being, (4) Quality Education, (5) Gender Equality, ( 6) Clean Water and Sanitation, (7) Affordable and Clean Energy, (8) Decent Work and Economic Growth, (9) Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, (10) Reduced Inequality, (11) Sustainable Cities and Communities, (12) Responsible Consumption and Production, (13) Climate Action, (14) Life Below Water, (15) Life On Land, (16) Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions, (17) Partnerships for the Goals. Though the goals are broad and interdependent, two years later (6 July 2017) the SDGs were made more "actionable" by a UN Resolution adopted by the General Assembly., which identifies specific targets for each goal, along with indicators that are being used to measure progress toward each target. The year by which the target is meant to be achieved is usually between 2020 and 2030.

Hunting, Harvesting, and Farming Seafood in the Information Age
272 pages | Nicholas Sullivan
"Overfishing. For the world’s oceans, it’s long been a worrisome problem with few answers. Many of the global fish stocks are at a dangerous tipping point, some spiraling toward extinction. But as older fishing fleets retire and new technologies develop, a better, more sustainable way to farm this popular protein has emerged to profoundly shift the balance. [...] In a fast-growing world where more people are eating more fish than ever before, The Blue Revolution brings encouraging news for conservationists and seafood lovers about the transformation of an industry historically averse to change, and it presents fresh inspiration for entrepreneurs and investors eager for new opportunities in a blue-green economy."
