SAGE’s Future of Our Oceans

SAGE is a Portland-based nonprofit that inspires people over fifty to give of their time, money and voice for the benefit of younger and future generations. Each year, we host a major keynote address to elevate an important issue facing the future. On Sunday, May 19, we are focusing attention on the future of our oceans, and hosting global oceans champion Dr. Sylvia Earle. We are pleased to co-present this event with the Oregon Coast Aquarium, and to host the event at the PSU Viking Pavilion in Portland.

We’ll kick off the event with an Oceans Expo with live music and exhibits featuring marine conservation, research and volunteer opportunities. Afterwards, we’ll have an 80-person choir engage the community in song, followed by a keynote address and conversation with Dr. Sylvia Earle. Earle is a global champion for oceans conservation. She will speak about the world’s oceans as the source of all life, why they’re in peril from pollution, over-use and climate change, and how we can be a part of an all-out effort to save them.
