learning about the ocean:
why does it matter?

OMD09402_edited.jpg

The ocean is the primary life support system on earth --the lungs, climate regulator, and ultimate food factory. 94% of the Earth’s living species live in the ocean and over 70% of the oxygen we breathe is produced by it.

​

Having a deeper understanding of the ocean’s significant role in our lives highlights the importance of our responsibility to learn how to care and protect its environment better, for the sake of our own future.
