Mangrove conservation - in Japanese.

"Preserve and protect our marine parks, marine environment and dive sites" Ocean Heritage is a foundation formed to address this dire need to protect and conserve the marine environment not only for the turtle but for all other life forms that inhabit the ocean.

This web site highlights the serious environmental changes happening in the Philippines today. We need your support to help us clean the beaches and coral reefs of this precious environment. spacer Our main concern is on the island of Luzon in the Bicol region on the Pacific Coast - South Luzon Coastal Cleanup and Reef Rescue Organization, P.O. Box 614, Bolinas, CA.

Over the past 30 years, coral reefs in the Philippines have been slowly dying. The most productive reef areas in the world are now known as some of the most endangered. Coastal development, sedimentation, dynamite and cyanide fishing, overfishing, pollution and global warming have all contributed to the damage. The good news is that Reef Check has shown that it is not too late! Together we can reverse the decline of the coral reef health and productivity within as little as one year.
