Our Oceans Matter

 Ocean Day

The oceans take up 70% of our world, they give us 70 - 80% of our oxygen and we

have only explored 5% of them. There are more than 1 million different species in
the oceans with many more to be discovered. The ocean is home to 94% of the life on
earth. It provides us with food jobs entertainment and sailing!

D espite all this we treat this mass of salt water with no care at all. There are
over 5.2 trillion pieces of plastic in the ocean and growing. Trapped by marine
debris (such as mesh, wire, old rope and nets) animals and birds have been
found during a recent international coastal
cleanup. Because of plastic pollution 700 dif-
ferent species are believed to be severely
21
threatened
22
But there is a way to help, and everybody
needs to chime in to make it work. See by 23
using our things again and again we can help
our ocean. What is even more effective is 24
REFUSING to use things like Plastic straws
or Plastic water bottles. We already know 25
these things so know we have to put it into
action. So REFUSE to use on use plastics 26
and make a difference in our ocean!
