American scientist Philippe Cousteau said‚ “Our oceans are facing innumerable threats from overfishing and pollution to ocean acidification and invasive/extinction of species.” This quote rings to our lives today in California because having over 50 beaches locally‚ we have seen most if not all of them in some manner polluted and mistreated.

one generation of the animals (TEDxYouth). This is just one example on how sharks keep everything in balance. Another example is coral reefs which serve as a home to thousands of fish in the ocean such as the parrot fish. Parrot fish eat coral reefs and if they don’t have a predator to control their population size it could be detrimental to the coral reefs. The parrot fish would become overpopulated and all these fish would eat away the coral reefs. (TEDxYouth). The ocean’s ecosystems would collapse

The greatest strength of Moore’s’ article is the fact that he has significant scientific evidence to back up his conclusions. First‚ he opens his article by saying that he has just come back from a scientific voyage into the Great Pacific Garbage Patch with the purpose of studying its effects. This immediately gives a sense that he understands the consequences of the object of his was writing. By asserting that he studied the area in question‚ he immediately lends scientific credit to his arguments

There is growing evidence that the increased amount of the fishing activity in the entire world is having a very serious effect on the health of the oceans as a whole. When commercially valuable species are overexploited‚ other species and habitat that share the same ecosystem are affected. According to many marine scientists and marine ecologists‚ unsustainable (overfishing) fishing is the greatest threat to the ocean ecosystems. For example‚ recent scientific studies suggest that overfishing of

With oceans warming up‚ toxic algae blooms are popping up all around the globe. Toxic algae blooms are very harmful and happen when phytoplankton accumulate and create toxins like domoic acid‚ which is a neurotoxin that can be deadly (Geiling). What give the phytoplankton the conditions to grow are the increasing temperatures of the oceans. Emissions are coming from places like cement production (which is a leading cause) deforestation‚ and fossil fuels like coal‚ natural gas and oil‚ which increase
