According to the National Oceanic Administration, there is approximately 1.4 billion pounds of waste and trash, in our oceans. Somers Point has been a great place for tourist to stop by, because of the route to water, and it’s certified water quality and condition. But, in the recent years, our percentage for water pollution has increased from 14% to 21%. The Clean Marina Initiative is an effective way to help stop this problem. Many people may argue that joining this type of program won’t make enough of a difference, however, this program will provide you with the capability to influence and permit others, so they also can help. The Somers Point Marinas should participate in the Clean Marina Initiative because it will increase the safety

First of all, if the Somers Point Marinas join in Clean Marina Initiative, it will increase the safety of all living organisms within land and water. According to The Giving Ocean, “Pollution adds up and contaminates our ocean, as a result hundreds of marine animals eating or get entangled in the trash and die. Our beaches are dirty, people get sick from contact with polluted water and dozens of health advisories tell us which fish are not safe to eat from these waters.” (THE GIVING OCEAN). This evidence explains the many tragic and devastating effects of water pollution in our shores, without the help and safety of the Clean Marina Initiative. To add to my statement, even though Somers Point may not have the largest connection to a water source, our lovely shores are still getting pollution and getting filled with harmful chemicals that were sprayed around the area, and random garbage that people thought would never make it to the ocean. If this continues, and reaches further in the ocean, to the habitats of the marine animals, it will contaminate the ocean with dangerous toxins and garbage, making humans who make contact with this water extremely sick and possibly killing the fish who consume or get twisted in the garbage. In addition, according to Save Our Oceans. Org, ”...we can prevent it from endangering our …show more content…
According to The Giving Ocean, ”...using research to teach the children of the future, and spread the word across the shores.” (THE GIVING OCEAN). This evidence explains how Marinas will use specific knowledge about water pollution from the Clean Marina Initiative, to educate the children of Somers Point and spreading new and riveting information about the Somers Point shores. For example, the initiative will supply local Marinas with prime information, specifically based on the main issues and effects of water pollution in on shores like the deadly toxins, within the filthy garbage, in a result, making humans and marine animals, who make contact with this disgusting water exceedingly sick. As equally important, Marinas will also have the knowledge from initiative research groups, on how to help/reduce/prevent water pollution. This is crucial data because Marinas can share this information to educate and spread awareness to the children of Somers Point about the problems and solutions about water pollution. In addition, according to the Giving Ocean, “With the information they now have, they can take action to help preserve and protect one of nature’s greatest gifts.” (THE GIVING OCEAN).
