Greenwater Foundation

We are pleased to announce that Greenwater Foundation has formalized its partnership with Seabed 2030 to help complete the mapping of the world's ocean and provide knowledge about what is below the surface of the water! In collaboration with Caladan Oceanic LLC and TCarta, we made one of the largest bathymetric data contributions to Seabed 2030 by a nonprofit - almost 300,000 sq km in over 20 nations.

Thanks to Ocean Tech Hackathon for including our app project in a great event on Saturday and for the team (Xian Ke, Josh, Anusha Kalyaan and Sushma Y) that created a fantastic design prototype for us!

Greenwater Foundation is looking forward to participating in the ocean tech hackathon tomorrow!

We believe the future of ocean stewardship begins with opportunity. Greenwater Foundation works closely with the New York Harbor School, an inner city public school on Governors Island, to support hands on marine and maritime education. Our focus is simple. Create real pathways for students, especially those from underserved communities, to gain experience on the water. This includes helping identify internship opportunities aboard working vessels and supporting plans to place a community based vessel that students can use for projects such as the Billion Oyster Project. Investing in young people means investing in the future health of our waterways. We are proud to help open these doors. 📚 Learn more about our educational partnerships: https://lnkd.in/eCxnxEu3 #STEMEducation #YouthInScience #MarineMentorship #GreenwaterFoundation

Did you see The New York Times' 53 Fascinating Facts of 2025? Each day, Times Insider editors scour the newspaper for the most interesting facts to appear on their pages. This year, tidbits about plastic recycling, whale sharks and crab Rangoon enlightened and entertained them. Fact 21. Humans have visually documented about 1,470 square miles, or a mere 0.001 percent, of the deep seafloor, according to a study published in 2025. That’s a little larger than the size of Rhode Island. https://lnkd.in/gaTUimbH Join Greenwater Foundation and our partners in our work mapping the ocean floor!

🌊 Finding solutions to conserve sea life happens when scientists get out on the water. 🚢 At Greenwater Foundation, we built VesselConnect, a web app designed to remove one of the biggest barriers to research and conservation: access to marine vessels. 🔬 Scientists & conservation teams: Find research-ready vessels that match your mission, region, timeline, and budget—so your work can move from ideas to impact. ⚓ Vessel owners & operators: Turn under-utilized days at sea into purpose. List your vessel, support science and exploration, and connect with impactful projects worldwide. ✨ Less friction. More time on the water. Greater ocean impact. 👉 Find or list a vessel today: https://lnkd.in/g3B5q5GP #OceanConservation #MarineScience #ProtectOurOceans #ResearchAtSea #Exploration #GreenwaterFoundation

In conflict zones and crisis areas, Greenwater Foundation and GMSO Research Vessels help bring essential tools and support to the people who need them most. This includes deploying marine assets, providing water testing and purification tools, and offering logistical expertise in real time. In Ukraine, this work helped deliver water purification resources to displaced communities where clean water access had been severely disrupted. Safe water is fundamental in any emergency. 🤝 Learn more at: https://lnkd.in/gTWaC_w8 #HumanitarianRelief #CleanWater #EmergencyResponse #GreenwaterFoundation

🚢 R/V Cosmo’s First Ocean Voyage 😍 R/V Cosmo has officially returned to the water following extensive mechanical and systems upgrades and a successful launch. After completing her initial ocean run, all major systems performed smoothly—an important milestone as she begins her next chapter of work at sea as part of the GMSO fleet. 📍 Where to next: Myrtle Beach, SC → Key West, FL From there, Cosmo will transit to Panama, where she is expected to begin her next phase of operations supporting locally based marine research organizations, with discussions underway involving the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. More to come as Cosmo continues her journey and gets to work at sea. 🌊 Learn more at https://lnkd.in/dq8F5VXS #RVCosmo #GMSO #AtSea #ResearchVessel #MarineResearch
