Ocean conservation is the protection of the ocean from the intervention of man. Our ocean is a vulnerable ecosystem that has been subjected to man made pollution. The creatures of the ocean have been subjected to man's desire to hunt for the sake of sport. Some believe that it is time to take a stand and start taking steps to protect the ocean environment.
Our ocean is a source of food for many people on the planet. Most conservationists do not oppose to fishing in the ocean in order to provide food for the world. But many conservationists oppose sport fishing. So called ocean sportsman will hunt fish and create trophies of their catches.
The coral reefs are delicate ecosystems that provide food and shelter to many ocean creatures. The coral in almost all the oceans and seas are at risk from pollution and scuba divers. Acid based chemicals from manufacturing plants end up in the seas and oceans and destroy coral reefs. Coral reefs are broken by scuba divers intentionally or unintentionally. If the coral systems die there will be some ocean creatures who will become extinct.
Many ocean creatures depend on the coral for food and protection. Once a coral reef is destroyed there is a good chance that it will not grow back. One of the biggest problems the ocean environment is facing is the deterioration of coral reefs.
The tuna industry is supposed to check its fishing nets before processing the fish in their daily catches. However, because the industry is always trying to increase its profits, many boats do not take the time to check its nets and actually process ocean creatures, such as dolphins, that are caught in the tuna nets. There are not enough resources to watch all the tuna boats in the ocean so many ocean creatures are being destroyed by tuna industry.
Off shore oil drilling poses a large threat to our ocean environment. The world needs oil and oil companies go to all extents to find oil the world needs to keep the economy moving. But one oil leak off shore will cause an environmental disaster. The conservationist wants more controls on off shore oil drilling.
Oil leaking from an offshore oil rig will kill all the creatures in the area of the leak. The oil will wash up on shore and destroy the delicate ecosystems along the shore. The oil will trap and kill marine life such as birds, dolphins, seals, and any other creature that is unfortunate enough to be affected by the oil spill. Everyone who cares about the environment should be interested in ocean conservation.
