As a child, the ocean – that big blue 71% of the planet – can seem like a long way off. Even on the beach, while collecting shells or building a sand castle, the deep ocean, fathoms below, can seem as far away as a distant planet. But it is there. Right now. And it is full of life. Just thinking about it can ignite a child-like wonder.
The hope is that by encouraging young people to love and respect our oceans, and the incredible biodiversity that resides within them, we can inspire a generation of passionate marine conservationists.
And it is for this next generation that we must protect the oceans and pass onto them a healthy and thriving marine environment that they can conserve.
