The Challenge

We are a land dwelling species, but we depend more on our oceans than we can imagine. Oceans cover close to three quarters of the Earth's surface, contain 97% of the Earth's water, and represent 99% of the living space on the planet by volume. Over three billion people depend on marine and coastal biodiversity for their livelihoods. Globally, the market value of marine and coastal resources and industries is estimated at USD 3 trillion per year or close to 5% of global GDP. Oceans contain more than 200,000 identified species, but actual numbers may lie in the millions. It is estimated that 91% of ocean species have yet to be classified , and that 95% of the ocean remains unexplored . Oceans absorb about 40% of the carbon dioxide produced by humans, buffering the impact of global warming. They also serve as the world's largest source of protein, with more than three billion people depending on the oceans as their primary source of protein. Unmonitored fishing is also contributing to the rapid depletion of many fish species and are preventing efforts to save and restore global fisheries and related jobs, causing ocean fisheries to generate USD 50 billion less per year than they could. As much as 40% of the world's oceans are heavily affected by human activities, including pollution, depleted fisheries, and loss of coastal habitats. Across the globe, 1,851 species of fish - 21 percent of all fish species evaluated - were deemed at risk of extinction by the IUCN in 2010, including more than a third of sharks and rays.

Why is this important?

Coastal and marine resources contribute USD 28 trillion to the global economy every year. But this is only a small part of why they are so important to our planet. The world's oceans - their temperature, chemistry, currents and life - drive global systems that make the Earth habitable for humankind. Our rainwater, drinking water, weather, climate, coastlines, much of our food, and even the oxygen in the air we breathe, are all ultimately provided and regulated by the sea. Throughout history, oceans and seas have been vital conduits for trade and transportation. Careful management of this essential global resource is a key feature of a sustainable future.

How can we address this?

Sustainable Development Goal 14 commits countries to united over what is a truly global responsibility - the protection of our oceans and the lives that depend on it. By 2020, countries commit to achieving the sustainable management of marine ecosystems, and in another five years, significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds. This will require an international scientific partnership, regulation of harvesting and fishing, and enhance our research and knowledge on issues critical to the survival of life below water.

In a vibrant coral reef in Australia, a group of young divers noticed that the colorful corals were turning white. The corals, which are home to many sea creatures, were losing their colors and, sadly, some of the fish were leaving. After speaking to a marine biologist, the divers learned that rising ocean temperatures were causing "coral bleaching." When water becomes too warm, corals lose the algae they rely on for food and energy, turning them white and making them weak. The young divers decided to educate their school about the problem and started a fundraiser to support coral reef protection efforts.

Key Points:

Cause: Rising ocean temperatures cause coral bleaching.

Impact: Bleaching affects marine animals that depend on coral reefs.

Solution: Raising awareness and supporting conservation efforts.

Liam and Maya read about a huge area in the Pacific Ocean filled with plastic waste called the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch." They learned that plastic waste from many countries ends up in the ocean, harming sea animals like turtles, fish, and birds that often mistake plastic for food. After seeing a photo of a sea turtle tangled in a plastic bag, they wanted to do something to help. Liam and Maya started a school campaign to reduce plastic use, encouraging students to bring reusable bottles and bags to help protect ocean life.

Key Points:

Cause: Plastic pollution in oceans.

Impact: Marine animals are harmed by ingesting or becoming entangled in plastic.

Solution: Reducing plastic use and raising awareness at school.

In the Gulf of Mexico, dolphins are facing a threat from pollution caused by oil spills and industrial waste. Anna, whose father works as a marine scientist, visited a dolphin rescue center. She learned that pollutants in the water make dolphins sick, and some even get stranded on beaches. Anna shared her experience with her classmates, who then organized a beach clean-up day to help reduce waste. They also wrote letters to local companies asking them to be more responsible with their waste disposal.

Key Points:

Cause: Pollution from oil spills and industrial waste.

Impact: Dolphins and other marine animals suffer from illnesses and injuries.

Solution: Community beach clean-ups and advocating for responsible waste disposal.

Ravi's family loves fishing, but during their last trip, they noticed fewer fish in the lake. After researching, Ravi discovered that overfishing was causing a decline in fish populations worldwide. Some species were being caught faster than they could reproduce, affecting the entire food chain. Inspired, Ravi created a presentation on sustainable fishing practices, teaching his class about the importance of protecting fish populations for future generations.

Key Points:

Cause: Overfishing depletes fish populations.

Impact: Disrupted food chains and fewer fish for future generations.

Solution: Learning about and practicing sustainable fishing.

Ella watched a documentary about whales and was saddened to learn that some whale species are endangered due to hunting and ship traffic. She learned that whales are important for keeping the ocean ecosystem balanced and that their numbers are declining rapidly. Ella and her friends created posters to share at school, educating others about the importance of protecting whales and other marine mammals. They also started a letter-writing campaign asking for more marine protected areas to keep whales safe.

Key Points:

Cause: Whaling and ship traffic threaten whale populations.

Impact: Decline of an important species in the ocean ecosystem.

Solution: Education, awareness, and support for marine protected areas.

Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 14 is to "conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development". Healthy oceans are essential for life on Earth, and SDG 14 aims to protect them.

Here are some things you can do to support SDG 14:

Donate: Support a Goal 14 charity.

Reduce waste: Avoid plastic bags and other waste that ends up in the ocean.

Clean up: Organize a community cleanup project for a local river, ocean, or seaside.

Buy local: Support small-scale producers by buying local and certified fish.

Stay informed: Follow local news and stay in touch with the Global Goals online or on social media.
