ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Seacology exists to create more island-based terrestrial and marine reserves, and otherwise protect threatened island ecosystems. We do this primarily by building schools, community centers, fresh water systems or other needed infrastructure, or by providing services such as scholarships and medical supplies that islanders have requested in exchange for creating new protected areas. We do not engage in the important, though less tangible, areas of scientific research, political lobbying or policy development. By focusing our efforts in this way we ensure that, a) what we do, we do extremely well; and b) our results are very measurable and readily lend themselves to objective metrics.
We are proud to present the following graphics which illustrate our accomplishments. For a listing and description of every one of our projects, please visit the island projects section of our website.
