Life Below Water

Lyceum-Northwestern University implements a comprehensive policy to prevent and reduce marine pollution, especially from land-based activities. The University invests in pollution-prevention technologies, enforces strict chemical and waste management protocols, and ensures that all hazardous materials are responsibly disposed of through accredited firms. L-NU promotes sustainable ocean stewardship by regulating wastewater and laboratory discharges, minimizing pollutants that may reach waterways. The University also ensures responsible and legal sourcing of seafood and supports marine conservation initiatives focused on protecting habitats and reducing human impacts. Advocacy and outreach programs engage students, faculty, staff, and the community in promoting marine conservation, sustainable practices, and collective action to protect life below water.
