- Runoff can carry pesticides and fertilizers from farms, and oil, and gasoline that spilled onto roads from the cites.
- Fertilizers can add nutrients to water and cause oxygen levels to drop=fish dying.
Example: A farmer is planting some plants near a river and and thunderstorm comes in and floods the farm and carries the fertilizer to  the river and then the river carries the fertilizer to the ocean, and then the fish eat it and die.]]> 2019-04-11 17:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/350887983 Artificial reefs wdp_28000 https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351243092 - Artificial reefs are man made reefs that are sunk in the coastal ocean areas
- They also provide feeding and hiding for fish which means more food.
- The ship Thunderbolt is a great example of an artificial reef   ]]> 2019-04-12 17:12:49 UTC https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351243092 Overharvesting viningcaleb11 https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351243173 - Occurs when the rate of fishing is greater than the rate of reproduction in an area.
- Can cause a population to disappear
- Can force humans to find alternate food sources.
- Can cause jobs to decrease and food starvation to increase!
- Overharvesting effects all organisms in a given food web.
Example: the Bluefin Tuna is the most overharvested fish in the world, therefore the population is decreasing rapidly.]]> 2019-04-12 17:13:03 UTC https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351243173 Beach Cleanups wdp_28000 https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351249336 Beach cleanups are when groups of volunteers go to a local beach and they go along the shore and pick up any trash they find.
- The beach cleanups help humans by saving fish which is a valuable resource to have
- this year we have had  

Example: 26,236 pounds of trash have been picked up and 2000 volunteers during beach clean ups

- it benefits the human population by helping the fish repopulate and that means more food.
- it benefits oceans by having more fish and fish our prey to other creatures
- we are examples of human awareness because by knowing and helping we could make a big impact in the future]]> 2019-04-12 18:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351284814 human dependence wdp_28000 https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351287722 1.Humans depend a lot on other parts of the environment by the resources humans get billions of fish every year to eat it is the biggest source and it is important.
2. Humans also use animals for clothing they use the leather to make jeans and jackets the leather in animals are necessary to humans.
3.Shelter is also what humans depend on they need it to survive the cold, heat and water. even in the present we sure other environments to survive.

- Bycatch occurs because modern fishing gear is very efficient, often covers an extensive area, and can be highly unselective—it catches not only the target species but many other marine animals as well. 
- Fishermen throw the marine animals that they don't want back into the ocean even though they are dead
Example: A fisherman is trying to catch a lot of shrimp, but they catch a turtle with it, and just leave it to die.]]> 2019-04-15 17:00:52 UTC https://padlet.com/viningcaleb11/c72wdwc3x09b/wish/351731715
