One doesn’t need to be a scientist to understand the urgent nature of the challenges facing the ocean, our most precious natural resource that provides more than 50% of our oxygen and supports up to 80% of life on the planet.

Plastic & Oil spillage are some the most common ways we destruct the ocean and its habitants, invariably being a source of main pollutant to erode the natural environment.

One has also discovered that when ocean ecosystems are given time and space to recover from detrimental human activities, they can rebound at an astonishing rate, So its never too late.
