The oceans are investable in many ways, and this talk serves as an invitation for you to participate in creating a sustainable and just blue economy. We begin with three ways capital flows into the oceans (four if you include owning a boat) across the spectrum, from philanthropy to investments seeking a market return. We then explore various ways you can catch this wave, depending on your passions and interests.
