SEA WEB:
Without a healthy ocean there would be no life on
earth. The ocean is the source of much of our air, water and food supply.
Today the ocean is in serious trouble. We can no longer take the ocean for granted
as an infinite food source, or a dumping ground for our waste.
Indeed, the drastic decline of the ocean could be the most important environmental problem
facing us in the 21st century.

Sea Change
by Sylvia A. Earle
"A moving plea for the preservation of the oceans... An adventure story and a tribute
to all creatures great and small. Tragically, it is a eulogy, a Rachel Carson - like
warning of the silent tide inexorably approaching" The New York Times Book Review

"I have no message for anybody. I am not wiser
than others. Be careful, think about the world your children will inherit"
