The pollution we create is, of course, contributing to the downfall of our oceans.
Worldwide, pipeline and vessel spills are blamed for the release of 32.5 million gallons of oil into the oceans each year.
However, the National Research Council, an arm of the National Academy of Sciences, surprisingly reported that runoff from land sources account for 41 million gallons of pollution, and international operational discharges from vessels, such as from cargo washing, produced another 78 million gallons. In other words, the vast majority of petroleum pollution comes from every day activity, not the ships that carry the oil.

"The human mind is a product of the Pleistocene age, shaped by wildness that has all but disappeared. If we complete the destruction of nature, we will have succeeded in cutting ourselves off from the source of sanity itself."

Industries discharge noxious chemicals which cause toxic buildup in innocent animals e.g. it has been documented that the St. Lawrence Seaway has contained such high levels of pollutants that, after death, beluga whale corpses are treated as radioactive waste! |

To top it off, the global human birthrate is steadily increasing by more than 95 million annually, and according to one estimate, by the year 2020, more than seventy-five percent of us will be living within forty miles of a coastline, so it's obvious that the pressures on our water planet will most certainly escalate. |

Right now is the time to act wisely - by getting wisely informed. The key to saving ourselves (and countless innocent bystanders) from ourselves is education. We must change our ways, or face the collapse of the ocean world...and life on this planet as we know it. Please check out the links and see our eco news page to learn how you can help. |
