NOAA’s mission is to understand and predict changes in the Earth's environment, from the depths of the ocean to the surface of the sun, and to conserve and manage our coastal and marine resources.

NOAA’s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and Access Monterey Peninsula (AMP) Public Television have collaborated to produce a new 52-episode television series entitled “Your Sanctuary.”

Designed to connect people with their sanctuaries, the program will feature local scientists and business leaders discussing how their organizations and businesses are integrally tied to the nation’s largest national marine sanctuary. The show will demonstrate how we are all connected to the ocean and highlight the activities of communities and organizations working to keep coastal and marine resources healthy.

According to NOAA, Your Sanctuary will air several times weekly (Mondays 7:00 PM, Tuesdays 8:00 PM, Wednesdays 9:00 PM, Sundays 6:00 PM) on Comcast channel 27 and AT&T channel 99. It will also be available at ampmedia.org, although the server was not available at posting time.
