Every Time I Slip Into The Ocean,

We Are Not Only Warming The Ocean And The Planet As A Whole, But We Are Also Acidifying The Ocean And Changing Its Chemistry.

My Parents Moved To Florida When I Was 12, And My Backyard Was The Gulf Of Mexico.

Give The Ocean A Break. Give Yourself A Break.

The Oxygen Cycle, The Nitrogen Cycle, The Carbon Cycle, The Water Cycle - All Of These Are Linked To The Existence Of Life In The Sea.

We Humans Have This Idea That The Ocean Is So Big, So Vast, So Resilient That It Doesn't Matter What We Do To It. That May Have Been True 1,000 Years Ago. But In The Last 100, Especially The Last 50 Years, We Have Destroyed The Assets That Make Our Lives Possible.
