Fight For Our Reef

The Great Barrier Reef is the largest coral reef ecosystem on the planet. People travel across the globe to see its magnificent corals, swirling schools of fish, sea turtles, whales, and dolphins. Greatly impacted by carbon pollutions, coral reefs are on the frontline of climate change

carbon pollution
Fight For Our Reef
The project has been a defining campaign throughout a 50-year history. From working with climate and coral reef scientists to building support for strong climate action to protect the Reef, AMCS has been at the vanguard of saving our Reef, shaping the laws, zoning and World Heritage protection for the largest living ecosystem on Earth. The main focus of the project is to combat carbon pollution and rapidly transform Australia’s energy future. We are in a race against time to save the greatest reef on Planet Earth.

Australian Marine Conservation Society
The organisation is Australia’s only national charity dedicated solely to protecting the country’s precious ocean wildlife. AMCS is an independent charity, staffed by a committed group of scientists, educators and passionate advocates who have defended Australia’s oceans for over 50 years. AMCS works on the big issues that threaten ocean wildlife. Together with their supporters, they have protected critical ocean ecosystems with marine reserves around the nation. They have led the movement to ban whaling, stopped supertrawlers, and protected threatened and endangered species like the Australian Sea Lion.
