Ocean acidification

The waves were going to be just right with the wind blowing and everything. I put my swimsuit on really quick. I rushed down to the beach before it got busy. When I got in the ocean, it was a little cold, then I got use to it. As I was wading in the water, my family came down also. While we were swimming in the ocean, we saw something long and dark. Just then, we heard my mom yell that there was a shark swimming towards the shore. We tried telling everyone around us that they needed to watch…

The attraction of trash to animals is a serious problem because of simple trash just laying around the streets, because they don’t know what it is. The article, “For Ocean animals, ‘Death by Plastic’ Could Be Occuring More Frequently” that is written by Elise Andrew states that, “Aside from just looking disgusting, all of this garbage poses a serious threat to wildlife who either confuse it as food or ingest it accidentally…

LEGO Canada has a corporate social responsibility (CSR) to assist Canada in reducing their plastic recycling waste as their products consist of mainly plastic granulate (ABS; LEGO, n.d.c). It has been reported that plastic waste pollutes oceans and bodies of water, including the Great Lakes (Nelson, 2018). This endangers marine life as they often mistaken small plastic pieces to be food. Modern consumers are more aware of social problems and “require that firms do not operate only in accordance…

feel that the human waste is a killer to the coral. Many people swim in the water, they could have diseases and sicknesses that could kill the coral. The environment that the coral lives in could be dirty with all of the bacteria that grows in the ocean. The scientist infer that it is not only humans but it's animals too. In source #1 paragraph #10 it states, ' We could only speculate that human waste was the source of pathogen because it's also found in wastes of other animals."…

Among the swooshing of the waves and the smell of sea salt I planned my evil prank deviously. (Prepositional Phrase First) Well, the rest of my family will sit over there, and they'll be running straight to the water all throughout there, so I’ll dig right around...here. I thought as I stopped at my distinguished digging point. It was a few feet to the left of where I expected my family to be, since I only wanted to catch one person- my sister. I ran over to where my aunt was setting down the…

As the sun rose on the horizon its gleams lit the waves of the ocean. The waves were very gentle that morning. As I progressed with my vacation at Cancun, Mexico I decided to take a quick run across the shores. While getting ready, I felt a tight squeeze in my lower stomach. It was such an unordinary sensation that I was going through and I was not able to understand exactly why I felt this way. But without minding these situations, I got dressed and headed out the door for a morning jog. The…

me with amazing memories that I will cherish for a lifetime. Beautiful sunny days, the ocean, dancing in the wind. The sun smiles down on all the people as they walk down to the beach. From the views off of the balcony, the beach was calling my name. On the beach, the gigantic blue ocean waves for me to jump in and swim. Getting to the beach I could smell the fishy saltwater. I dove into the gigantic blue ocean, an enormous wave hits me, I was knocked to the seafloor. I could not breathe, the…

them of the situation and convince them to do something about it. If I were to tell you we need to stop the overfishing of the Bluefin Tuna most of you wouldn’t have a care in the world. However you need to care, these are beautiful creatures of the ocean and not enough is being done to stop them from being overfished due to the high demand for them in the sushi market. We need to put pressure on organizations like ICCAT to lower quotas and put an end to tuna auctions in Japan. When you think…

Why Doesn’t The Ocean Freeze? There is popular belief that the ocean never freezes. The ocean is saltier away from rivers because rivers put freshwater into the ocean. Salt percentages can have either good or bad influences on marine life. Almost anything, including…

The sky was a mix of colors. Bright bold red intertwined with the honey yellow sitting on top of the neon blue sky. It was like a swirling bowl of paints just coming off the brush into the water. You could see the reflection of the sunset in the ocean. The rippling waves look as if it was calling you to swim out to the cotton candy looking sunset. The clouds across from the sun were like marshmallows, fluffy and white contrasting with the blue sky. Looking off the start of the dock it almost…
