Today, we’re taking a look at the ocean and why it’s so important to sustaining human life. Off the top of our noggins, half the oxygen we breathe comes from plankton in our oceans, 15% of our global diet is from seafood, and the ocean helps to regulate our climate through carbon sequestration. Phew!
Read moreOur Warming Waters – devastating for so many reasons!

But the phenomenon of global warming, one of the major symptoms of climate change, is also causing the warming of our oceans. A while ago we explored the rising sea levels — and touched on the reasons and expected impacts. But it’s time to wade deeper into the health of our oceans.
