Why Sea Turtles? "CCC has chosen sea turtles as the focus of its conservation efforts in part because these ancient creatures are among the most important indicators of the health of the world's marine and coastal ecosystems. CCC believes that whether sea turtles ultimately vanish from the planet or whether they remain a wild and thriving part of the natural world, will speak volumes about both the general health of the planet and the ability of humans to sustainably coexist with the diversity of life on Earth."
One of the best things the CCC does is help to enact protective laws and to establish sanctuaries for sea turtles. Through environmentally-sound tourism, visitors experience nature without harming it, and enhance the economies of local communities.
