€35k to secure a boat, the captain, basic supplies for the Whale Passage: a wild, science-driven, soul-fueled Atlantic crossing beyond COP30. Nature, whales, and real human stories matter more than ever.

Another €18k if we want our crew to be paid for this bold mission (and we want our crew to be paid)

It keeps going. We need €15k so the team of 6 would secure their living expenses during COP with prices rising up to 800 eur per night.

Finally we need €49k to produce and distribute the movie Whale Passage! Your name can be in the final credits YOU are who is making it all happen!

If you care about the ocean, climate, or the magic of connection, this is your invitation.

WHY WE’RE DOING THIS

For the last four months, Behind the Greens Media team —a crew of 24 volunteers and 17 conservation and NGO partners—has been aligning by our love for the ocean, whales, storytelling, science, and of course for real badass adventure. It is time to bring the new paradigm to COP and beyond.

For me, it goes even deeper:

•⁠ ⁠When the world obsesses over money, I choose to persevere and make impossible on paper things happen because I feel the call! I allow the money to come in!

•⁠ ⁠This is the hardest project I’ve ever attempted—physically, emotionally, spiritually. But it’s all aligned: my background in conservation, my grandad’s legacy as a captain, my network, and my stubborn hope that authentic stories can still move people.

I’m not here to burn out, and I’m not willing to do this at any cost. I want to show the world that softness, rest, and resilience belong in climate action too. I need your support.

WHAT WE NEED

•⁠ ⁠€80k to cover:

- Boat and captain (core, non-negotiable)

- Food and safety gear for the team

- Basic living costs (so we don’t starve or lose our homes just to make a point)

- Production expenses (filming, storytelling, real impact)

•⁠ ⁠In-kind support:

- Equipment, gear, food, introductions to boat owners/captains

•⁠ ⁠Brands/Companies:

HOW YOU CAN HELP

•⁠ ⁠Donate whatever you can—every euro helps us get to sea and keep the lights on, if you visit this page and decide to even drop 10 eur, this energy of trust and support will carry us even further than money can.

•⁠ ⁠Share this campaign with your network (friends, brands, funders, dreamers)

•⁠ ⁠Make an introduction to anyone who might help, or DM me @margreenie if you have an idea or want to offer your energy

If you really have operational funds to support this:

€100 feeds us for a day. Four donations of €500 buys enough food for the whole crossing. €1,000+? We can amplify another underfunded environmental project representing right intentions at COP.

if you drop €3,000+ maybe team and me can get paid for the emotional, physical, environmental, scientific and spiritual work that has been done for last 4 months and will continue until we are done here on this planet.

Media is power- I got 15 years of experience and knowledge.

We are ready to carry this.

Thank you for reading this far, I appreciate all the attention to this project, your shares, your donations and your kind intentions.
