Welcome to AnEcoScape!

AnEcoScape is a Non-Profit 501(c)(3) Organization. Our mission is to educate, improve, and restore the health, productivity, and diversity of the near shore marine life and nearby terrestrial areas, which are rapidly degrading from human activities.

Artificial Reefs

Our planet’s reefs are facing a catastrophic, climate-driven decline. Driven by rising ocean temperatures, pollution, and increased acidity in our oceans. This threatens marine biodiversity and coastal livelihoods since reefs support about 25% of all marine life. An immediate solution to this problem is to build Artificial reefs placed in salt or freshwater environments to mimic natural reefs. These structures are designed to provide habitats for marine life and support by creating a three-dimensional underwater structure.

AnEcoScape is actively encouraging the rapid building and deployment of structures in Santa Monica Bay.  We will achieve this through educational and applied research and construction programs. Read More …

Join a Beach Clean Up

We meet on a regular basis at a Southern California beach to clean up trash left by beach goers. Our goal is that when other people see us clean, they get inspired to clean up after themselves. Read More …
