The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) is the UK charity dedicated to caring for our seas, shores and wildlife. MCS campaigns for clean seas and beaches, sustainable fisheries, and protection for all marine life. We are celebrating our Silver Jubilee in the year 2008/09, 25 years of groundbreaking work to protect our sea life - from whales, dolphins, sharks and turtles, to fish, plankton, corals and crabs. You can support MCS in our vital work to save our seas, by joining MCS as a supporter, making a donation, or taking part in projects about mcs. MCS also has dedicated marine conservation programmes for Scotland and Wales.
