#Oceans
Oceans feed us and stabilise the climate. They are being emptied of life and filled with plastic. We must protect them for all life. There is so much more below the waves for us to discover. They contain some of the largest and least visible creatures on Earth, and some of the most intelligent too. Every second breath we take comes from the oceans. To protect our shared oceans, we have to challenge industrial fisheries and to create vast sanctuaries to replenish them. Let’s protect our blue planet together.
