WE'VE BEEN NEEDING OUR WATERS, NOW IT NEEDS YOU

For countless centuries, waters have been a fundamental source of life. However, with the increasing threat and damage caused by the Princess Empress Oil Spill incident, our waters need our help - our immediate attention and action.

Oil spills can have catastrophic impacts on marine life, habitats, and local communities, and the effects can last for years, if not decades, and can be felt across entire ecosystems. The damage can range from losing marine wildlife and habitats to economic losses for the fishing and tourism industries. If we fail to take action, the consequences could be severe. But if we act now, we can create a more sustainable future for our waters.
