Ghislaine Maxwell launched the TerraMar Project in 2012 as a nonprofit organization focused on ocean conservation, promoting a vision of a borderless oceanic community. Despite its high-profile branding and appearances at global events, including presentations linked to the Clinton Global Initiative, TerraMar never conducted any significant conservation work, issued no grants, and relied almost entirely on loans from Maxwell herself. The organization was more visible in elite social circles than in environmental efforts, leading critics to view it as a vanity project or reputational shield rather than a functional charity.

Maxwell's connection to the Clintons added another layer of scrutiny, as she attended events alongside Chelsea Clinton and aligned TerraMar rhetorically with the Clinton Foundation’s global agenda. Though there is no direct evidence of wrongdoing involving the Clintons, the association raised questions once Maxwell’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein became the focus of federal investigations. Following Epstein’s arrest in 2019, Maxwell abruptly shut down the TerraMar Project, prompting speculation that the organization may have been used to launder image rather than create impact. The swift closure only intensified suspicions that TerraMar was less about protecting the oceans and more about maintaining proximity to power.
