ACRES SAVED BY PROJECT

Seacology is Currently Protecting:
879,681 acres of island terrestrial habitat

844,125 acres of coral reef and other marine habitat
 

The numbers above reflect the total number of acres Seacology projects have "saved" plus the number of acres Seacology projects are currently "supporting".

Saved Acres: Acres are considered "saved" if a Seacology project results in the establishment of a new nature reserve that wouldn't have otherwise existed. Projects belonging in this category are listed in the table below.

Supported Acres: Many nature reserves around the world are poorly enforced or exploited, effectively preventing the reserves from serving their purpose of protecting wildlife and critical habitat. In cases like this, Seacology works with local communities to ensure that the reserves are extended beyond paper and into practice. Acres protected in this way are called "supported" acres. You can see a list of Seacology projects that involve this type of work here.
