Welcome to the World Oceans Day takeover

To mark the second annual UN World Oceans Day, we’ve got a whole load of exclusive sea-themed content on huckmagazine.com!

World Oceans Day was first declared on June 8 2009 as "an opportunity to raise global awareness of the current challenges faced by the international community in connection with the oceans."

As part of this, we talk to pro surfer and campaigner Dave Rastovich, Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd Conservation Society founder Captain Paul Watson and Sven Huseby, star of environmental documentary, A Sea Change.

HUCK also recommends some great films about the ocean you should check out and and takes a look the emerging, and potentially devastating, industry of ocean mining.

And the HUCK columns didn't escape this either. Ruth Carruthers suggests that the Deepwater Horizon may just offer a glimmer of eco hope and Tim Conibear gives a personal insight into his own deep love affair with the big blue.

Get Involved.

There are many organisations out there who have committed themselves to helping preserve the oceans and need your support to carry on doing what they do.

Greenpeace - an non-governmental international environmental activist network.

Marine Conservation Society - UK charity dedicated to the protection of the marine environment and its wildlife.

Surfers Against Sewage - non profit-making organisation campaigning for clean, safe recreational waters.

Sea Shepherd Conservation Society - is an international non-profit, marine wildlife conservation organisation.

Surfrider Foundation - A non-profit environmental organisation dedicated to the protection and enhancement of the world''s waves and beaches.
