If the ocean could speak, would we finally listen?
Imagine standing at the edge of a cliff, staring out a our vast, shimmering ocean. It looks endless.But what if i told you i simple piece of rubbish you throw becomes a major problem. It could impact over millions and million of marine species. It could cause destruction. It could cause climate change.
Beneath the waves, lies an endless world that we may never see or meet again. Swirling schools of silver fish, delicate gardens, majestic whales gliding silently though the deep open while singing. But, you might think this will last forever. But no, this vibrant life is fading every year by year, soon it will fad faster and faster. That’s why i’m here is stop this mess.
You might be wondering, why we should care? Because we make a difference if we work together and do the right thing. The ocean is not just a beautiful mystery with things that are not discovered, it’s our life source. Studies have shown over 50% of our oxygen comes from the ocean. It absorbs a massive amount of carbon dioxide, helping the Earth maintain it’s climate. Billions and trillions of people all across the world rely on fishing and if we don’t protect our ocean’s and sea’s we will lose a third of a food. It also fuels economies around the world.
When sea life dies, we lose more than just beauty, we lose balance.
If we don’t change courses, we risk our lives by losing air, lifeless waters and no seafood. Protecting sea life isn’t just about saving animals. It’s about protecting the heartbeat of our planet.
So now, the ocean has suffered enough. The ocean is calling, will we answer? The next time your at the beach will you throw your rubbish in the bin?
