I am honoured to serve as an Ocean Ambassadors Friend. Growing up in Jamaica, surrounded by the Caribbean Sea, I have long recognized the need for everyone to play a role in taking care of the environment in order to preserve our planet. The environment feeds us, keeps us clothed, along with providing fresh air and clean water.
Organizations, such as Ocean Ambassadors, have made it their duty to do whatever they can to protect this critical asset. We are very fortunate to have Felix Appelbe leading this organization as he has always demonstrated the critical empathy and understanding of the environment and its preservation. From all corners of the world, let's join together to support this tremendous effort.
People in the Caribbean depend on a healthy environment and even more so, a healthy ocean. As an economical vehicle that also helps to drive tourism, we are extremely happy and willing to play whatever small part we can.
Best regards,
Sophie Grizzle Roumel
Treasurer / Director & Chair Environmental Committee, Negril Chamber of Commerce

In February 2019, four women completed an unprecedented stand up paddle-boarding (SUP) expedition in Baa Atoll in the Maldives. Backed by Ocean Ambassdors and a number of other organisations, their mission was to raise awareness of the need to protect marine life from the threat of plastic pollution and climate change.
