CLARKE | SAVE THE SHARKS MISSION Our mission is simple; to save the sharks. We do this through many mediums, but always fall back to our core belief. We believe that people will want to help conserve something only when they truly understand the issues. This is why our ultimate goal is to educate, because without knowledge and awareness, we cannot accomplish much else. GOALS We believe that in order to be successful at what we do, we have to be organized. Below you’ll find our three core beliefs, and any projects that we conduct fall into one of our three goals. Browse our site for more detailed info for each goal. 01. – GENERAL OUTREACH AND EDUCATION One of our objectives is to bring more educational awareness to the public who otherwise wouldn’t know much about issues that sharks face today. 02. – INDEPENDENT SURVEYS Our second objective is to conduct independent dive surveys that highlight the relationships between people and sharks, and how we can better them. 03. – REMOVING SHARK PRODUCTS We aim to get shark products and meat off of menus and out of stores.
