BLUE PLANET ALLIANCE AT COP 30
OUR MISSION
The mission of Blue Planet Alliance is to get islands and countries around the world to legislatively mandate a commitment to 100% renewable energy by 2045. We work with governments, organizations, businesses, and individuals to help grow a global movement aimed at reducing the negative impact on the planet, thus aligning human behavior more in harmony with nature.

Mobilizing Youth to Advance Ocean Literacy and Protection
Date: Tuesday, June 3
Time: 10:00 am -12:00 pm
Location: Ocean Literacy Hub, Green Zone
In collaboration with the French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development and the international organization Peace Boat US, we invite you to join us for this special event to highlight the importance of fostering a dialogue between science and society. We will demonstrate how this approach helps to mobilize young people to protect the environment, by empowering them as informed and engaged actors.
WHAT WE DO
Blue Planet Alliance (BPA) is working to end the use of carbon-based fuel.
If that sounds improbable, consider that our founder, Henk Rogers, led the movement that made Hawaii the first U.S. state to enact legislation mandating a transition to 100% renewable energy by 2045.
And now, through our flagship Fellowship Program, we’re bringing islands from all over the world to Hawaii, to share how we did it — and how other islands can do it, too.
We've brought 37 islands to date to Hawaii (and 18 of those 37 have pledged to go 100% by 2045 or sooner). Our fifth cohort in October will see another 10 islands go through our Fellowship program.
Interested in applying to be a Fellow? We’re looking for participants who:
work for a power utility, or
work in the legislative or regulatory sector, or
lead a community program or initiative
Our Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Partnerships program brings together like-minded organizations all over the world, organizations that — like us — keep the future health of the planet at the forefront of their own work.
By signing a non-binding MOU, partners publicly commit to collaborating with us to advance environmental sustainability and accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels. These partnerships help amplify our collective impact and grow a global movement for a cleaner, more resilient future.
