Save Our Bays is a Community Interest Company which supports coastal communities and the marine and coastal environment. Through information sharing and engagement with community groups, schools and individuals, we are committed to the conservation and protection of our precious nearshore and coastal habitats.
Through lobbying, press engagement and collaboration with other marine advocates, we help to raise awareness of threats to coastal areas, and support campaigns to preserve marine ecosystems.
Whilst the ‘Blue Economy’, in the form of seaweed aquaculture and other mariculture installations, carbon capture ventures, Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement, desalination and biotechnology, are very possibly the beginnings of a solution to mitigate the impacts of climate change, these projects need to be handled carefully, with coastal communities, small boat fisheries and the environment at the forefront of proposals..
From the outset, before a marine licence is applied for, it is crucial that developers seek Social License to Operate.
We strongly suggest that emerging mariculture and coastal development companies call on the mix of skills, expertise, generosity and commitment to the conservation of marine habitats available within coastal communities, to boost their licence applications and to give their businesses the strongest start.
