Oceans in Crisis

Because the ocean is so big, people underestimate their behavior - seems not to be so important - the impact on them. Humans basically believe that the ocean is considered natural; it does not take into account the importance of healthy sea for our existence. The general idea is that the ocean is a bottomless fish, natural resources and an infinite garbage dump. There are many reasons to preserve the ocean, especially marine life. Since 71% of the earth is covered with water, it is clear that marine life is the main form of life and occupies 80% of the life of the earth.

Of course, every day is Ocean Day. On the headline, we point out several ocean import problems everyday. Crisis of plastic contamination and increase of vortices throughout the world, catastrophic failures of failed drilling equipment and transport accident, water bodies of Arab pirates, impact on trade of the expanded Panama Canal, melting sea ice, arctic Arctic Ocean , The reduction of fisheries in the global economy, the mitigation of ocean regulations, the increase of drilling and mining, and the continuing increasing evidence of climate change to the ocean Negative impact and ability to support every aspect of human survival

As many listeners and supporters of the World Ocean Radio and the World Ocean Observatory knows, we have highlighted that long-standing relationship between the global water crisis and the healthy sea. My new book "Future Ocean and Future: Notes on the New Hydraulics Association" explained this synergy and how to provide new insights into the assessment, organization, and behavior of the 21st century. An example. Of course, I am not alone with this problem. Indeed, even in rigid global institutions like the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the study of 750 Forum members in 2015 considers the water crisis to be the most influential global risk It is.

Our ocean is in trouble. Ocean acidification, whitening of corals, overfishing of fish stocks seems not enough to cause a crisis Marine pollution at alert level is a major concern and requires a joint effort of all people on the planet I will. According to the Plastics Marine Foundation and the United Nations, an estimated 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the sea every year and there are an average of 13,000 plastic wastes per square kilometer of the ocean. Plastic occupies most of marine waste and needs to be replaced

Due to the decades of waste management policy, plastic waste continues to be dumped directly into the ocean, leading to an international pollution crisis threatening the world's oceans. Do you know that there are five huge marine plastics in the world? These huge plastic pieces cover the broad ocean, and the size between California and Hawaii is comparable to that of Texas. Sea creatures fall into food and plastic debris and may be killed or attacked. Plastics consumed by marine organisms accumulate in the food chain as well as toxins they absorb from the water making the seafood potentially dangerous for human beings.
