SEOUL, South Korea, July 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyundai Motor Company is deepening its commitment to ocean conservation through an expanded partnership with Healthy Seas, a global nonprofit dedicated to removing marine litter and fostering healthier seas. The five-year collaboration, which began globally in 2021 and now extends across the United States, launches 'From Sea to Shore.' This comprehensive program combines underwater diving missions, employee engagement and ocean education in Southern California to protect marine ecosystems and advance sustainable solutions. "The health of our oceans depends on the actions we take today and the solutions we build for the future. Through our ongoing partnership with Healthy Seas, we are helping drive environmental remediation by recovering and repurposing waste to protect ecosystems and reduce environmental impact." – Randy Parker, President and CEO, Hyundai Motor North America How Does Hyundai Motor's Healthy Seas Partnership Advance Ocean Conservation? Since 2021, Hyundai Motor and the Healthy Seas Foundation have expanded their collaboration from Europe to Korea and now to the U.S., through which the company is supporting the recovery of more than 320 tons of marine litter across 10 countries.
