Center for Ocean Solutions

Through its work on climate change, the Center for Ocean Solutions (COS) seeks to develop innovative solutions to enhance ecosystem and human community resiliency to climate change impacts. We also seek to improve the policies governing climate change mitigation and adaptation. The Center develops and executes research, education and communication strategies to achieve these goals.

Set to a backdrop of stunning photography from the International League of Conservation Photographers (iLCP), leading marine scientists from Stanford and MBARI discuss the role of the ocean in climate change. Watch the Video
