National Aquarium in Baltimore is proud to be wearing blue today in honor of World Oceans Day. Help us spread the word. What are two actions that you can share with friends and family to help keep our waterways healthy?

Jodi
Jodi
I'm wearing blue today too!!
1) don't use detergents with phosphates - like Tide!
2) please remember to cut up your soda-rings
John
John
Got to have the blue!
1) Don't let pet fish free in the ocean unless they are native! Florida does not need clown fish!
2) Get your fish from farm raised, or farm bred participating fish stores. Less issues in the ocean
3) RECYCLE everything.....HELLO!!!!
4) Remember we SHARE the oceans. Shark bites happen here in the shark bite capital of the world. It's THEIR ocean, you will get sandy, salty, and possibly stung or bit by something! BE PREPARED!... Read More
5) Again we SHARE the ocean with the world. Be safe, be smart, enjoy!!!
