Oceanic Preservation Society (OPS) is a nonprofit media organization that creates film, photography, media, and large-scale projections to raise awareness about oceans and the planet, with the aim of inspiring action. Founded in 2005 by photographer and diver Louie Psihoyos and based in California, OPS brings together artists, activists, and change agents to pursue sustainability and ocean preservation through storytelling and visual impact. The group has produced acclaimed documentary films, including The Cove, which achieved international recognition and earned an Academy Award, and Racing Extinction, which combines investigative imagery with advocacy themes to highlight biodiversity threats.
 OPS engages a diverse audience across media and public-facing projects, aiming to inform and mobilize people around ocean-related environmental issues. In recent developments, OPS partnered with Grove Collaborative to launch The Unplastic Shop as part of efforts to address microplastics and related health concerns. The organization operates within the media production space, positioning itself at the intersection of documentary storytelling and environmental advocacy based in Los Angeles and broader California, with a mission centered on informing and influencing attitudes and actions toward ocean health.
