“ We have become frighteningly effective at altering nature. ”
As a child, I was aware of the widely-held attitude that the ocean is so big, so resilient that we could use the sea as the ultimate place to dispose of anything we did not want, from garbage and nuclear wastes to sludge from sewage to entire ships that had reached the end of their useful life.
~ Sylvia Earle
I hope for your help to explore and protect the wild ocean in ways that will restore the health and, in so doing, secure hope for humankind. Health to the ocean means health for us.
We need to respect the oceans and take care of them as if our lives depended on it. Because they do.
Any astronaut can tell you you've got to do everything you can to learn about your life support system and then do everything you can to take care of it.
