we are firm advocates for the healing of our oceans. we recently had the opportunity to learn from sealegacy, an organization whose heart lies in resuscitating the ecosystem of this integral body of water.
Read Moreocean acidification, yet another problematic effect of climate change, presents a threat to coral reefs. due to increased levels of co2 emitted into the atmosphere, the oceans are growing increasingly acidic. when co2 reacts with water, carbonic acid is formed, lowering the ph level.
Read Morerising sea temperatures are an inevitable byproduct of increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere. these warmer waters threaten the survival of coral reefs, some of Earth’s most productive and diverse ecosystems.
Read Morethough climate change and global warming have been receiving much public attention in recent years, the interrelation between the oceans and the global climate is rarely recognized. the rainforests are often called “the lungs of the planet”, but few people realize that 70% of the oxygen we breathe comes from the seas. the Earth’s atmosphere and its oceans are entwined in a co-dependent bond.
