Statement from Ann Tihansky, Physical Scientist & Communications Coordinator, Department of Interior:
For National Ocean Month 2023, the President issued a proclamation that recommits us to protecting and conserving our precious ocean and to harnessing its power to shape a more sustainable planet.
The Summer 2023 edition of NEWSWAVE demonstrates many ways we are working at the Department of the Interior (DOI) to fulfill these important stewardship commitments. Through advancing renewable offshore energy, restoring coastal wetlands, investing in nature-based solutions and conducting the science to understand and guide management decisions in the face of climate change, we recognize how the ocean connects us all.
Secretary Haaland’s NEWSWAVE 5 highlights a broad range of examples that show how we bring our collective missions together to support our blue portfolio, such as hosting the White House 2023 Conservation Summit at the Main Interior Building, where key actions, including the first ever Ocean Climate Action Plan, were announced.
