Ocean Health

The ocean is one of our most important resources. Not only is it home to marine life, but it also absorbs carbon emissions from our atmosphere to help us combat climate change. When the ocean absorbs too much carbon, it causes the water temperature to rise, become more acidic and decreases oxygen levels. These changes can affect the plants and animals that live in the ocean and will ultimately affect humans around the world.
