## About and History

Deep Blue Foundation was founded by **Freyja Sigurðardóttir**, a Narwal Sira who initially worked as an archeologist. It started as a campaign against ocean plastic and ocean acidification, preserving the living condition of ondynes and other aquatic creatures. In 2020, The campaign then grew bigger, expanding their mission to support and protect all of ocean conservation and wildlife as a foundation along with her husband.
