Blue Ocean Sciences LLC The BOSLLC mission is to address the needs of the global community for advanced and fresh approaches to solving large-scale ocean health challenges.A non-traditional multi-disciplinary approach. Bringing together eminent experts, BOSLLC uses advanced system communications to combine the latest in knowledge, technology, and validated scientific information to find solutions to today’s biggest environmental problems. Global Need:Ocean pollution is one of the most ubiquitous and persistent problems in today’s world. From governments to individuals worldwide, many do not comprehend the vast scope of this multifaceted issue, which spans from environmental toxins, radiation, nano-particles, heavy metals, and fine mineral deposits that impact the world’s carbon-cycling systems to our food resources and the very air we breath. Many of today’s largest ocean pollution problems are a significant and solvable environmental issue, yet research has not been able to keep up with the magnitude of the crisis. The approach we are currently taking is not working at the speed we need to make a difference in the ocean for our survival. Fresh, Innovative, Advanced Approach to Solving Large Scale Ocean Health Challenges. Using a partnership approach BOSLLC creates environments where a true multi-disciplinary collaboration can take place between scientists, industry, organizations and government. Using the best tools and people available, this talented team of individuals from diverse backgrounds seeks out the right questions and works together to create solutions and answers. Origin and Focus:Together this team has explored over 6000 nautical miles of critical ocean environments. It is through these experiences that BOSLLC was formed to create impactful teams and tools to find solutions to the ocean health issues. These include new technology development, media, and consulting services.
