As we all know that 70% of our planet is covered with oceans. We think that everything over this planet is our & we can use it as the way we want, Hence we have assumed the Ocean & Seas are the our global dustbin so we keep on throwing all our garbage in it and assuming that we are cleaning our home & city but indeed we are cleaning less and littering even more than our imagination.

Our life cycle is directly connected with ocean. If we will not protect our oceans, we have to pay for it. Rain water is very essential for our lives, for our agriculture & when it rains we come in direct get connected with ocean. We people do not understand that forest & ocean are so closely connected to each other, if the environment of ocean get adversely affected then it will vanish our forests. Polluted ocean in the form of rain can do heavy damage to us. How much clean water we can produce in factories? The prime source of fresh water is ultimately the rain water, isn’t it?
We talk about climate change but we forgot that Carbon Sequestration (Neutralization of carbon) happens most in Oceans not in Forests.
We talk about tree plantation & it is essential for oxygen but Most of us do not know that Ocean produces more oxygen than the forests & plants. Rainforests are responsible for roughly one-third (28%) of the Earth's oxygen but most (70%) of the oxygen in the atmosphere is produced by marine plants. The remaining 2 percent of Earth's oxygen comes from other sources. Since our childhood it has been taught to us that plant tree it give oxygen to us, BUT we never been taught that keep clean our oceans they give us majority of Oxygen. Most importantly we must understand that this 70% of oxygen we will keep receiving till we keep Oceans clean, free from pollution & keep low its acidity.

Without ocean there will be no life over earth. Last year A 18 feet long Whale found dead over the beach of India. And when its body gets examined, it was found that a plastic spoon was stuck in it and cause to its death. So it’s a matter to think that if we can kill a whale which is the biggest animal over this planet then what will happen to other marine animals. Millions of aquatic animals meet their end by the killer garbage thrown by us.
