Ocean Sewage Alliance

Wastewater pollution has been a largely invisible problem. It becomes visible when people fall ill, fisheries fail, beaches close, toxic algal blooms wreak havoc, and much more. The negative repercussions of wastewater pollution are in front of us – we just need to recognize them. But, documentation of wastewater pollution can be difficult to find due to historical neglect of this issue, so Ocean Sewage Alliance partners began to identify and organize key pieces of information to help others build the case, point to the evidence, and connect to experts.
The Ocean Sewage Alliance Knowledge Hub synthesizes the impacts of ocean wastewater pollution, provides a primer for those new to the sanitation sector, explores opportunities in the solution space, includes an ever-growing library of multimedia resources, and serves as a gathering spot for folks to connect and collaborate on this issue.
