Oceans LO DANGER
3
We humans depend on the sea for food, but
many fish species are quickly disappearing in the Atlantic
the tuna is almost extinct, and everywhere sharks are a
endangered species. One reason is that modern fishing
methods are wasteful. Fishing boats use huge nets tha
trap large numbers of fish. Most of the fish they cate
they throw back into the sea. If the oceans run out of fish
it will mean millions of people worldwide will go hungry

Think of all the wildlife that lives in and around
our oceans. There are fish and dolphins that swim there
and birds that feed on the fish Now, imagine there is a
floating island of rubbish on the sea. What happens to the
wildlife? The fish eat the plastic which is bad for them. The
dolphins can't breathe because they can't reach the
surface. The birds get caught in the plastic bags and can't
fly. Unfortunately, this is not just in our imagination. It is
actually happening, and it is putting our oceans in danger!

2 Half of the life on our planet is in the seas, but
we are quickly destroying it. Every hour, humans throw
over two million pieces of rubbish - especially plastic - into
the oceans. The plastic breaks into small pieces, but it
never goes away. Like giant monsters that are swallowing
the ocean, huge islands of plastic cover large parts of the
Pacific and the Atlantic. Unless we can find a way to clean
the oceans up, sea life will probably disappear from them.

Most of us don't see what is happening in the
middle of the sea, but there are things we can do closer to
shore. In many areas, water pollution is poisoning the
natural habitats for wildlife. Chemicals kill the plants that
fish feed on so they have to migrate further away. This
means less food for all the other wildlife. Oil from ships
affects birds. A seabird that has got oil all over it will try to
clean itself by eating the oil - and along with it the
chemicals in the water. If volunteer groups clean up these
areas and take such birds to clean-up centres, they ma.
survive. In that way, we can be a part of the solution
