Ocean warming is forcing leatherback turtles to travel further for food
Dear Jon,
Have you seen Turtle Journey?
We’ve worked with Aardman Animations (the makers of Wallace and Gromit and Shaun the Sheep) to create a powerful short film revealing the threats our oceans are facing, and the importance of protecting them.
The film – titled Turtle Journey – tells the heartbreaking story of an adorable turtle family attempting to get home, in an ocean that needs protection.

Like the family in Turtle Journey, sea turtles in real life are under intense stress from destructive industries. Did you know six out of the seven sea turtle species are threatened with extinction due to the pressures of multiple ocean threats?
Our oceans face pressure from all angles. Climate breakdown is causing the oceans to acidify and warm, which is disrupting food supplies for marine life and damaging ecosystems. Overfishing, oil drilling, plastic pollution and destructive industries are then adding more pressure on an already damaged and degraded ocean.
Sea turtles survived the extinction of the dinosaurs, but they might not survive us. Without urgent action, the situation will only get worse. Click the button below to watch Turtle Journey, then share it to tell your friends to protect our oceans.
Thank you for everything you do,
Lerato Tsotetsi
