Our Living Oceans

There is an incredible abundance of shapes and colours

There are so many patterns and ornaments and we need to be careful not to destroy them.

We need to protect the inhabitants of the ocean.

The oce4an is a fairytale world

We need to stop overfishing

The variety of coral in the oceans is amazing

This little one wants us to protect it

The underwater world is like a unique film set

This little fish looks very sad because he does not know if his habitat has a future

Thank you Inda for this beautiful post.
The oceans are truly a magical place. Let us stop polluting them and let us stop overfishing.



Love,

Thank you Inda.
What a beautiful post with such lovely images.

I hope that humans will protect the oceans and all the magical things that live in it.

You are right Inda and yoko, we need to stop overfishing which destroys the balance of the oceans.

Love,

Thank you yoko and Vicky.

This information is from an older post:

Coral reefs are part of the foundation of the ocean food chain. Nearly half of the fish the world eats make their homes around them. Hundred of millions of people worldwide depend on them for their food.

If the reefs vanish, experts say, hunger, poverty and political instability could ensue.
Whole nations will be threatened in terms of their existence.

Numerous studies predict coral reefs are headed for extinction worldwide, largely because of global warming, pollution and coastal developement, but also because of damage from bottom-dragging fishing boats and the international trade in jewelry and ornaments made of coral.

If the reefs die-off fish will become a luxury food item. We alrerady have a billion people facing hunger, and this would just aggrevate the system. The economic damage would be enormous.

Most of this information comes from 'The Honolulu Advertiser', Friday, March 26, 2010

Thank you Inda.

Our underwater world is so beautiful, let us keep it that way.

Unfortunately,on April 24, the Coast Guard reported that more than 40,000 gal. of crude oil a day was leaking into the Gulf waters just 50 miles south of the coast of Louisiana.
And I am sure that this is not the only man-made disaster.

Thank you everyone for your beautiful images.
Thank you Inda for starting it.

sincerely,

Thank you Sue and Gisele.

Our oceans are the gateway to the earth's climate.
let us keep them intact.

I hope that all the inhabitants of the ocean will survive.
Things are becoming very critical indeed, due to the behaviour, and carelessness of human beings.

Let us keep our oceans clean, healthy and intact.

Thank you Teo.

Let us keep the oceans intact for all the beings who call it their habitat, otherwise all these beings will become extinct.

The songs you learned in dol-phin lair
Giving home to life as all we must
And teach us how their grace to share
