My today’s presentation is going to be about the oceans and their importance for our lives

The fact that we should take care of our trees is very simple and everyone knows that, but perhaps you
have never thought about importance of the oceans. Let’s dive together in order to get new information
about this topic

We understand that leaving trees or planting trees really helps the carbon equation, but nothing matters
more than maintaining the integrity of ocean systems. I mean these big animals, even the little ones,
they take up carbon when they sink to the bottom of the ocean. The ocean is the biggest carbon sink on
the planet.

Commercial fishing we essentially wildlife poaching on a mass scale, catching up to 2.7 trillion fish every
year, or up to 5 million killed every single minute. And perhaps one of the most shocking facts of all
came from one of the world’s leading fisheries experts estimating that if current fishing trends continue,
we will see virtually empty oceans by the year 2048.

As you can see on the slide there is statistic of cruelly killed dolphins. And it bags the question.

“why kill the dolphins that aren’t selected for captivity?”

There is very little reason to slaughter them.
There is no market for dolphin meat.
Why not just release them back into the sea?
And the answer to that question is that the fishermen view the dolphins as competition.
They feel that they eat too many fish, and if they
get rid of the dolphins, there will be more fish available for
Them to catch.

Now let’s talk about the food chain

Sharks are apex predators. So they’re at the very, very top of the food chain.
They are what I call level One.
They eat level two.
They eat the poor, the sick, the weak of level two.
But when you take away level one, level two then overpopulates.
And level two eats level three.
So they all actually overpopulates.
They will wipe out their food supply, which is level three.
And then, level two’s got nothing to eat.
So level two then disappears, and they go extinct.
And it carries on down the food chain, down to the smallest organisms.
So when we talk about saving sharks and how important they are, even though people don’t necessarily
like them,
They are that key to the survival of our oceans.

If we want to avoid massive climate changes, and all above mentioned problems the first thing you do is
protect the ocean. And the solution of that is very simple: LEAVE IT ALONE.
