Blueplanet Quarterly - Books: a new kind of blue - periodical - Brief Article

E: The Environmental Magazine, Jan-Feb, 2002

The Ocean Conservancy, formerly the Center for Marine Conservation, has more than just changed its name. It is approaching the future with a feverish desire to conserve and protect the oceans by educating and inspiring the public through its new publication, Blueplanet Quarterly ($25 membership/subscription). Previously, the organization published a 24-page newsletter that focused on its activities and progress. Now these updates supplement wide-ranging, easy-to-read feature stories. The 48-page magazine includes captivating photography of ocean life as well as regular departments and columns that answer questions from concerned readers, debate issues about ocean advocacy, bring the public up to date on current ocean issues and tell readers how to get involved.
