World Oceans Day: we are all connected. This year‘s theme is Reimagine and we want to add “Reframe”.  From 1,000,000 miles away in space, we are a blue marble with no separation between nature and each other. The blue threads that connect us may be invisible, yet they weave and cycle through the biosphere, allowing all forms of life to thrive. The thin blue line of water and atmosphere that contains whales and watersheds, ferns and fossils, corals and cougars contains you and I and everyone we know and don’t know is the only line separating us from lifeless space. So this World Ocean’s Day you’re invited to Reframe: how you see things, lifestyle choices and how the vast ocean cradles and supports all of us.

Did you know that approximately 22% of the world's coastal waters are exposed to measurable levels of artificial light at night?

Many marine species rely on natural light cycles to navigate, feed, migrate, and reproduce. When artificial light spills into coastal environments, it can disrupt these behaviors and alter entire ecosystems.

This World Oceans Day, let's remember that protecting our oceans means protecting the night.

Through the DarkSky Approved Port Marine Terminal Lighting program, ports can reduce unnecessary light pollution while maintaining safety and operations, helping create healthier coastal environments for both people and wildlife.

Because the ocean needs darkness, too. Visit https://bit.ly/4pgIWos to learn more.

🔎 Some of the most important structures in a mangrove are almost too small to see.

Look closely at the pencil-like roots (pneumatophores) poking up from the mud around a grey mangrove (Avicennia marina), and you'll find them dotted with tiny pores called lenticels.

👀 They're small but the tree can't breathe without them.

Mangroves grow in waterlogged, oxygen-starved sediment, so their roots can't get air the way most plants do. At low tide, these lenticels open up, letting gas pass between the atmosphere and the spongy internal tissue (aerenchyma) that channels oxygen down to the submerged roots. When the tide comes back in, they seal off.

🌳 And just like that, whole forests can thrive on the water's edge.

“Have you ever wondered what Jupiter would be like without the beach, Jupiter Inlet or the intracoastal?

Spending time around water is a summer tradition for people from all walks of life. It impacts our lives in many ways.

It’s time to shape the new story of water! ‘100 Days of Blue’ asks people to get in, on, near or under water daily for 100 days and to share your experiences through personal networks and social media platforms.

This simple gesture of expressing love for our blue planet demonstrates the vital role it plays in our health and wellbeing and helps us tell the new story of water each year throughout all 100 days of summer.

More mangroves please! Year Two of the Mangrove Project is coming full circle with 200 red mangrove propagules rescued, rooted and ready to plant. This season we’re planning more projects, more socials, more chances to be part of restoring mangroves to local shorelines, chances to educate our community and …more mangroves. Looking for ways to make a positive difference for the Jupiter Inlet, the Lox, the lagoon and the community? Visit Wildbluesea.org to learn about our mission and email us with the subject line: I want to be a mangrove volunteer if you’re interested. Can’t wait to meet you and do good together!
