Things We Can Do To Be Part Of The Ocean Protectors

By Carolyn Evans


It is not unheard of for major companies to dumb their waste into organizations. Ship tankers also may spill some of the oil into the ocean mostly by accident. This, however, can be stopped by ocean protectors. The ocean is a big part of our lives. It provides sea food and is even a source of income due to tourism.

We can reduce the amount of energy we use. Specifically, carbon energy which causes more harm to the environment and the sea at large. Emission of carbon gases to the atmosphere is the major lead in depletion of the ozone layer. You can choose one or two days a week when you use a bicycle or even take the bus to work. You may also choose to take the stairs on other days.

If you are a fan of sea food, you have a chance to make a difference. There has been a significant drop in the number of fish globally. Many have been over eaten while others do not have the right habitat to survive. So, as you order sea food, try to order species that are not in danger of being wiped out.

Plastic is one of the things that should completely be eradicated from the face of the earth. It cannot decompose and so when it gets stuck on the ground, it kills the fertility of the soil. This can be changed by avoiding the use of plastic water bottles and even transporting stuff using bags made out of plastic.

You can organize or take part in beach clean ups. Many people like having picnics at the beach or just like sunbathing. Unfortunately, they leave the used paper plates or even water bottles on the beach. The waves or even rain may carry the waste back into the ocean, and before you know it, the ocean will look like a dumping site.

It is normal to see jewelry made from animal remains. For example, some people make bracelets and earrings from cow bones. People have also tried to do this with marine life. Some use shark teeth. This means they had to mill the shark so as to get the teeth. This is a violation of the law and under no circumstances should you purchase such jewelry.

Most people have pets. They range from birds to other animals. If you own a cat, do not flush their litter down the toilet as it may end up in the ocean one way or another. If you own an aquatic pet, do not just put any kind of fish in your aquarium. The conditions may be lethal to it, or it may be lethal to already existing animals in the tank.

You can start an ocean protecting the organization. If not, you can join or even sponsor one. This will go a long way as many enthusiasts will eventually join. You may also educate the community members around you on the importance of conserving the ocean and how the effects can be devastating.
