Our oceans, our responsibility
From the Mediterranean to the Indian Ocean, from the Balearic Islands to the seagrass meadows of Amorgos, Burgess is committed to protecting marine ecosystems. Through our partnership with the Blue Marine Foundation and other local initiatives, we support vital projects that safeguard biodiversity, restore habitats, and tackle threats to ocean health.

Saving Seagrass
Seagrass is one of the ocean’s unsung heroes – a natural carbon sink and a vital nursery for marine life. Burgess is supporting the AMORGORAMA project on the Greek island of Amorgos to restore and protect these meadows for generations to come.

Mediterranean
Illegal and destructive fishing practices pose a major threat to marine biodiversity. In the Balearic Islands, we supported projects designed to protect fish stocks and ensure sustainable fishing for the future.
Tackling illegal fishing in the Balearics
Indian Ocean
The Indian Ocean yellowfin tuna population is collapsing due to overfishing. Burgess supported urgent action to counter this decline and protect the livelihoods of local communities who depend on it.
