New England's thriving ocean is not only home to an enormous diversity of wildlife, but also supports thousands of jobs and businesses, contributing over $16 billion to our economy annually and supporting thousands of local jobs and businesses. As our ocean grows more crowded we need new tools and approaches to ensure a healthy, thriving future for both our ocean and the communities that depend on it.
The New England Ocean Action Network (NEOAN) is a diverse network of organizations, individuals and industries working together to promote new approaches to ocean management in our region based on collaboration, cooperation and sound science. Join our movement for healthy oceans, good government and thriving coastal communities.
New England is leading the nation in developing better approaches to managing our ocean resources. Read the latest updates on ocean planning and management in New England.
