Our mission is to end all pollution of our planet's oceans through cooperative international recycling activities and the elimination of toxic waste dumping.
SOS advocates immediate proactive solutions.
We intend to involve our youth in this project, and promote educational resources in all these areas. SOS successfully coordinated a pilot project with the cooperation of the Transpacific Yacht Race Committee in the 1993 race from Los Angeles to Honolulu. Racers kept a daily log of pollution sightings, recording contamination, and collected their own refuse as they sailed. The winner of the race, Silver Bullet, also won the recycling trophy. This project serves as a global role model which demonstrates how individuals and collective efforts by those who are concerned about the health of our oceans can be part of the solution.
