We can protect – forever – an underwater wonderland ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

            This week we can protect a HUGE 695,400 acre stretch of 
Madagascar ocean home to endangered sharks, turtles, and dolphins, and 
pristine coral reef!

            At nearly 3000 square kilometres, the Marine Protected Area we 
can help create would be bigger than Luxembourg. And it’s critical to 
defending this incredible stretch of ocean from illegal fishing, 
unsustainable tourism, and pollution.

            Our partners are working with the Madagascar government to 
create the reserve and fund and implement a strong enforcement plan. They 
have 90% of what they need to make it happen, but are asking for *our* help 
to get it done!

            At least 24 threatened species, from sharks to dolphins to 
turtles (like the endangered Hawksbill above), call this area home. And we 
can protect it forever. Can you chip in to create this mega Marine Protected 
Area in Madagascar – and fight for nature worldwide?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount




            Nosy Be isn’t just critical for its biodiversity, but essential 
to food security for Madagascar, where more than 90% of the population lives 
below the poverty line. This project is badly needed to ensure long-term 
protection of the coral reef ecosystems that are vital to both local 
communities… and marine life.

            That includes HUNDREDS of endangered Whale Sharks – the world’s 
largest fish – which congregate in the area, but have become frequent 
victims of boat collisions.



            Not to mention endangered Blue Whales,



            critically endangered Hawksbill Turtles,



            endangered Humpback Dolphins,



            and over 300 square kilometers of what scientists call 
 “pristine” coral reef!



            We can help preserve it that way for future generations. If 
enough of us chip in we can help our partner Rainforest Trust fully fund the 
project and get the Marine Protected Area in place – and keep up our work to 
find more opportunities like this around the globe! Can you chip in?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            Your donation will help power Ekō and our campaigns worldwide 
fighting for people and the planet.

            Together, we’ve helped protect massive tracts of land from 
Indonesia to Ecuador, from Guinea to Argentina. Now we have a chance to do 
it for the ocean too…join in!


            Thanks for all that you do,
            Danny and the Ekō team
