Protecting our Oceans

Now, more than ever we all really need to make every effort possible to protect our oceans from the constant contamination and pollution that they face everyday from human negligence. You may not realize it yourself but literally every step you make can some how effect our oceans, it could be in the form of transportation that leads to carbon footprints, or maybe you didn’t recycle and it all goes into the ocean damaging the life of our sea creatures.

The first and most prominent negative impact that we have on our ocean’s is the constant threat to our wildlife. For a start we have overfishing, a serious problem not many seem to be aware of, the reality of the situation is the fish supply is shrinking, so if you are a big fish eater try and cut back or make the change to something else to help the underwater creatures that survive on fish stay alive.

Next when your in the home doing your cleaning you should be aware of what cleaning products you use, most cleaning products tend to pollute our water supply when they go down the drain. They then travel to our lakes, oceans and rivers resulting in pollution all around so make a change to some Eco cleaning products today!

Some good cleaning products you could use would be Lemon juice, baking soda and club soda, you could even mix them together and form your own cleaning product.

The ocean and its inhabitants are part of our planet to so do that you can to protect them both before the day comes when the ocean is to polluted to swim in, avoid that now and have a healthy ocean for generations to come!
