The ocean is also very important for tourism and industry and is at the same time a source of food for many people all around the world. The ocean is also a home for many living beings and plants of all sorts, some of which we still have yet to discover. If we don’t take better care of the ocean those animals might become extinct and damage us as well in the long term.

The seas and the oceans are  a huge body of saltwater that covers more than 70% of the earth's surface. The world sea is divided into three large oceans, the Pacific, the Atlantic and the Indian.

The ocean is one of the largest ecosystems, but it also has the highest biodiversity. By melting ice on both poles, the sea level rises and threatens the coastal cities.

Oceans are very polluted and the waste in the oceans is very dangerous  to those who live in this big ecosystem.

 Parley is a company that is collecting waste and creating pieces of new clothing and footwear.

Besedno zvezo lahko razumemo metaforično, pa vendar vsebuje del resnice. Lahko bi rekla, da je glava, glavni del človeškega telesa. Vsebuje štiri zelo pomembna čutila poleg tega pa imajo v notranjosti nje same, ''sedež'' možgani.  Opravljajo eno najpomembnejših nalog, skrb za delovanje in ohranjanje pri življenju, na skriven način sodijo kaj je moralno in humano ter kaj ni. Obraz je navadno tudi prva stvar, ki jo opazimo na osebku. Želim povedati to, da si naslov lahko razlagamo zelo direktno in bi bilo na nek način to tudi pravilno. Rodili smo se v morju in tako kot spremembo na obrazu, takoj opazimo spremembo v morju. Neglede na zunanje spremembe, ki jih opazimo hitreje, so notranje pomembnejše. V resnici se nam niti sanja ne, kako zelo smo že onesnažili morja v globino z našimi posegi, pa naj gre za naftne izlive, smeti ali pa celo množično lovljenje rib. 

Ne želim poudarjati le odlaganja smeti. Problem se sicer zdi kot najhujši morilec morskih živali, ampak mislim, da je dejavnikov v resnici več. Morda med nami, ljudmi in oceani ni prave korelacije in težje razumemo kakšno ogroženost povzročamo vsem prebivalcem planeta z onesnaževanjem voda.

Ravno s takšnimi šolskimi nalogami ter mednarodnimi projekti (v mislih imam Erazmus, OZN,…) ozaveščamo in spodbujamo druge k razmišljanju o težavah, ki so morda trenutno še ''potopljene''. Verjetno se vsi zavedamo trenutnega stanja, pa vseeno se mi zdi, da se premalo trudimo. Sama se bojim obdobja, ko bo postulat ne jesti prave morske hrane, prepovedano plavanje v morju ali pa celo panično reševanje izumirajočih vrst. 

A few days ago I saw a video and it horrified me. I am still not sure what should I think about it, but it just somehow didn't seem right.

I couldn't get rid of the feeling that I should do something about it. Even though it wouldn't make a huge impact on the current situation. After a lot of thinking about what I could actually do, I' ve come to the conclusion that one can not force others to act more humanely or to be more ecological and cautious about not polluting the oceans. Instead of that we could just show them the reality, the bottoms of oceans covered with plastic. So here are some of the pictures to think about.

1. For every 1 million tons of oil that is shipped, 1 ton is spilled into the ocean

2.   Marine creatures swallow plastic bags because they think they are edible jellyfish

 3. The amount of mercury near the surface of many of the world’s oceans has tripled as the result of our polluting activities, a new study has found, with potentially damaging implications for marine life as the result of the accumulation of the toxic metal.

Mercury is accumulating in the surface layers of the seas faster than in the deep ocean, as we pour the element into the atmosphere and seas from a variety of sources, including mines, coal-fired power plants and sewage. Mercury is toxic to humans and marine life, and accumulates in our bodies over time as we are exposed to sources of it.

 Človek je lahko velik filantrop, vendar moramo misliti, tudi na okolje, biti malo altruistični. Tu za primer izpostavljene oceane ter bitja s katerimi živimo, ali pa bi vsaj morali živeti, v sožitju.

Surfing in the most extreme spots and weather conditions can be uncomfortable for those without the relevant experience and knowledge. A little courage never hurts, either. The risk of leaving family and friends forever should not be taken without every possible consideration for safety being made.

The drinkable, non-salted water is getting polluted more and more on a daily basis. It is becoming obvious that we’ll have to fight this problem.. Just to illustrate, all water combined on our planet consists of 97% of sea water, which is quite shocking.

I really hope people will start acting and being aware of this problem in the near future. If we don’t, the consequences could be terrible. 

Ocean je tudi zelo pomemben za turizem ter industrijo ter je hkrati vir hrane za miljone ljudi po vsem svetu. Ocean je dom mnogih rastlin in živali, ki so in tudi tistih, ki še niso bile odkrite. Če za ocean ne poskrbimo bolje danes nam bo to škodilo v prohodnosti z onesnaženjem ter izumrtjem določenih vrst živali katera so že danes ogrožena.
