Your Ocean
Index
Introduction
Why should I care about the ocean?
The ocean covers 70% of the Earth and helps to control the world’s climate. You rely on the ocean for food, fuel and many of the things you buy.
What is going wrong?
People used to think that the ocean’s resources and its ability to clean itself were never-ending. Now we know that the ocean can suffer from our activities.
Can I help?
Things you do every day affect the ocean. By finding out what is going on and making choices about the way you live, you can help to save the ocean.
It is your ocean. What will you do to save it?
