Our seas and oceans are battling an ever increasing threat from anthropogenic influences ranging from fishing, pollution, changes in sea levels, temperature and acidity. Our planet relies on these marine environments to remain in a balanced and stable condition. Without healthy seas and oceans, we are facing an uncertain and bleak future.
Are you finding it hard to get into a career in Marine Conservation?
Don't worry, you're not alone … although this is a growing sector it is a relatively new "industry" and people entering this field are being turned away from even start-up jobs due to lack of experience. This is exactly where Zoox can help by developing the skills you need for these positions quickly and efficiently.
Conservationists are at the frontline of educating the public whilst approaching people who are able to make changes. We need more skilled conservationists if we are going to try and address the many problems we have today.
Zoox takes a new approach to creating jobs whilst helping to support those who are interested in this important sector. We work with people from all over the world and our contacts and backgrounds put us in a very fortunate position to do ... and we would like to share them with you. Zoox doesn't believe in keeping this knowledge as a secret, like a good book these little snippets of magic should be shared.
Zoox is an abbreviated form of the word zooxanthellae, which is an algae. This is commonly found within tropical corals and makes up one half of the symbiotic relationship by providing the corals with energy to grow in the form of glucose, glycerol and amino acids. The zooxanthellae in return are provided with a home or base in which to flourish. They also provide the colour for the coral which is lost when they are stressed and they leave the coral leading to coral bleaching.
