World Oceans Day

The Trash in the Ocean.
We’re drowning marine ecosystems in trash, noise, oil, and carbon emissions.

Covering more than 70 percent of our planet, oceans are among the earth’s most valuable natural resources. They govern the weather, clean the air, help feed the world, and provide a living for millions. They also are home to most of the life on earth, from microscopic algae to the blue whale, the largest animal on the planet. Yet we’re bombarding them with pollution. The majority of the garbage that enters the ocean each year is plastic.

The damage we are doing to our oceans and environment is no longer just of academic interests. It is affecting not just our resources but also affecting lives on water land and air. Oceans play a major part in our lives. Global warming is causing innumerable problems. Resulting in rising sea levels and health hazards. On this World Oceans Day, let us stop for a moment and think about how we can protect our oceans, rivers and other water bodies. Oceans help us in many ways.

Oceans produces the 50% air we breathe.
Oceans form around 70% of the world's surface and help keep earth's temperature in check.
The ocean has a significant effect on the biosphere. Oceanic evaporation, as a phase of the water cycle, is the source of most rainfall, and ocean temperatures determine climate and wind patterns that affect life on land. 
Oceans form a vital component in the world economy with the majority of the trade using sea routes. It also provides jobs to millions of people worldwide. 
The world oceans are home to 230,000 known species.
Pollution, These days our oceans are under threat.
