Marine Life

by Justice Obiri | 24-11-2019 13:56



Marine relates to things found in the sea. When life is added to it, then it would probably mean life found in the sea. This life includes plants, animals and organisms. This is marine life or ocean life. In as much as we have life above sea, so do we have life in the sea. Life in the sea helps humanity in various ways.  Life in the sea serves as food, dead decaying organisms in the sea produce fossils, the various species of organisms in the sea serve as tourists¡¯ attraction which supports the economy of various countries and continents. Some of this organisms in the sea are used for concoctions and used for medicinal purposes. 


Human activities however are posing a great 

danger to these organisms through pollution

 which is known as marine pollution. Some of 

these activities include:

1.     Over fishing

2.     Oil spillage

3.     Disposal of human excreta into the sea

4.     Disposal of rubbish (plastics) into the sea

5.     Mining (Minerals such as gold, diamond¡¦etc)

6.     Deep sea mining

7.     Land run off

8.     Ship pollution


These are just to mention a few. It would 

therefore be very necessary for us to conserve 

marine life because they help us very much. We

 could do this through:


1. Educate Yourself About Oceans and Marine Life

2. Travel the Ocean Responsibly

3. Influence Change in Your Community

4. Support Organizations Working to Protect the

Ocean

5. Be an Ocean-Friendly Pet Owner

6. Don't Purchase Items That Exploit Marine Life

7. Help Take Care of the Beach

8. Use Fewer Plastic Products 

9. Make Safe, Sustainable Seafood Choices 

10. Mind Your Carbon Footprint and Reduce

Energy Consumption.


We could better educate our communities, friends, mates and partners through the various forum we organize as Tunza Eco Generation Ambassadors. It is our actions that will help save us all.
