Advocating for Conservation
This program encourages
local businesses to keep
plastic bags, straws and
other common litter
items out of our waters.
Dedicated to teaching
citizens how to take
action on issues, related
to climate change.
A one-day event at the
Zoo educates visitors
on environmentally
friendly practices.
This public outreach
program focuses on the
changes we can make
in our day-to-day lives
to improve the overall
health of the Indian
River Lagoon.
The Zoo hosted these
striking large-scale sea
life sculptures made from
marine debris to raise
awareness of its threats
to the environment.
Visitors can pick up
Seafood Watch materials

the best sustainable
seafood to buy.
