Since opening 40 years ago, the Monterey Bay Aquarium has helped people experience and appreciate the ocean, deepening their understanding of its complex and fragile nature and taking action to protect its future. Healthy ocean ecosystems are critical to enabling life on Earth to exist, and our very survival depends on them. There is much to celebrate in the progress the Monterey Bay Aquarium has made over the past decades, but winning the race to slow the pace of climate change and human impact on the ocean demands more of all of us. This is an opportunity to step up.
