Blue-Green Connections is celebrating Mission Blue’s designation of the Florida Gulf Coast as a Hope Spot!

An evening event on October 25th will be held at the historic Fenway Hotel in Dunedin. Prominent speakers, including Her Deepness, Dr. Sylvia Earle, will talk to a roomful of guests enjoying food from local eateries about the importance of the oceans, the Florida Gulf Coast, and the many on-going efforts to keep it around for generations to come.

The home city of this Hope Spot, Dunedin, is especially near and dear to Mission Blue’s heart– this town is where Dr. Sylvia Earle, founder of Mission Blue, grew up and first fell in love with the ocean. Dr. Earle’s marine conservation nonprofit Mission Blue declares the Florida Gulf Coast a Hope Spot in recognition of the action from research programs, conservation projects and educational programs of the several dozen organizations hard at work along the coast to preserve the area’s ecosystems and life within them.
