Today is World Oceans Day. After decades of pollutions by humans, the world’s oceans are on the tipping point for collapse with millions of tons of toxic microplastic particles. In just a few years, the volume of microplastic particles will exceed that of plankton, turning our oceans into a huge sea of plastic. This publication entitled “Plastic Ocean: Art and Science Responses to Marine Pollution” brings together numerous international art projects related to environmental activities and offers an interdisciplinary perspective across the arts and a wide range of disciplines, sounding the alarm about this ecological crisis.

Was lange währt... oder ...besser spät als nie! Blubb... 🐠 (Werbung, da Verlinkung) Heute mal eine Buchpost aus Österreich, die schon einige Monate auf dem Buckel hat, da sie schon Ende letzten Jahres bei mir eingetrudelt ist. Was passt allerdings zum heutigen Tag des Ozeans besser, als eine Buchbox von der lieben @celesteealain zu #SecretsInTheDeep ❤️ Die Box ist aktuell übrigens noch in limitierter Anzahl im Onlineshop von Celeste erhältlich. Hier der Klappentext zu Secrets in the Deep: "Tauche ab in diese Welt, wenn du den Mut dazu aufbringen kannst." ​Was, wenn ich dir erzähle, dass eine Spezies im Verborgenen unter uns lebt? Und dies bereits seit Tausenden von Jahren? Doch sei gewarnt, sie schreckt vor nichts zurück, um unentdeckt zu bleiben... Majestätische Rochen, quirlige Tümmler, nichts als blaues Meer und eine packende Story - was wie der Traum vom Paradies klingt, wird für die 27-jährige Journalistin Linnéa zum Albtraum. Bei den Recherchen für einen Artikel in der Südsee gerät sie in die Fänge eines bislang unbekannten Volkes und die faszinierende Unterwasserwelt wird zu ihrem Gefängnis. Während Linnéa mehrere Fluchtversuche unternimmt, kommt sie ihrem attraktiven Entführer mit jedem Mal näher. Doch ihre Kulturen könnten nicht unterschiedlicher sein. Schon bald muss Linnéa eine folgenschwere Entscheidung treffen, die nicht nur ihr Leben und das des unentdeckten Volkes, sondern auch die ganze Menschheit verändern könnte. Wird sie auf ihr Herz hören oder sich von ihrem Verstand leiten lassen? Das Buch ist als eBook, Taschenbuch und Hardcover erhältlich. ISBN: 978-3-347-70081-9 (PB) ISBN: 978-3-347-70082-6 (HC) Einen angenehmen WorldOceansDay 2023 euch allen!

World Oceans Day
With oceans making up 66% of our Earth, it’s crucial we raise awareness about and tackle the threats facing these life-giving and life-containing bodies of water.
66% of the world is covered in a blanket of rich, vibrant blue, from its depths once came all life on the Earth, and it continues to house an immense amount of life. This blanket is the world’s oceans, and they serve as one of the most popular vacation spots in the world and play a vital role in the economy of countries worldwide. Across the briny deep massive amounts of cargo cross each year, and it still serves as the primary thoroughfare for trade. World Oceans Day celebrates the ocean and the important role it plays in our lives.
It’s a time for supporters of the oceans to focus on conversation and sustainability so that they can remain clean and usable. The animals deserve a happy and safe place to roam and live without having to worry about any destruction or man-made obstacles. It’s important to safeguard the oceans to help ensure a healthy home for all. One this day, people can come together to create a space for all to enjoy and appreciate, no matter where each person lives.
History of World Oceans Day
In 2008, the UN gathered and uniformly created World Oceans Day. It was first proposed in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro during the Earth Summit. The ocean has been an incredibly important part of human history, and this special was established with the intent of celebrating our connection to the sea and raising awareness about the various dangers it faces. There are nearly 200,000 identified species that live in the ocean, but the number of actual species that reside there is likely in the millions. It’s essential to ensure that they don’t have to worry about freely getting around and enjoying a healthy and safe home to reside.
Even with that being the case, there are still problems with overfishing, and the subsidies that are given for fishing in countries all around the world are causing depletion of the game species. These activities have led to efforts to restore the fishing industry being undermined, and the industry bringing in $50 billion a year less. It’s just one of the many factors that should have us all celebrating World Oceans Day and raising awareness about all the issues our big blue’s face.
There’s a global environmental catastrophe due to decades of overuse and a surge in single-use plastics. Plastic straws and bags are getting into the oceans and causing havoc. World Oceans Day is an opportunity to acknowledge and recognize the efforts that have been and are being made against plastic pollution. It’s enlightening and disheartening to know that today, 13,000,000 tons of plastic leaks into the ocean every year, which among other damage, kill 100,000 marine animals annually.
World Oceans Day Timeline
1987 Brundtland Report
This report, connected to The World Commission on Environment and Development (Brundtland Commission) notes that the ocean sector is lacking representation compared to other sectors.
1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro
Created as a way to celebrate the world’s shared ocean and raise awareness for the personal connection between humans and the ocean. This is where the concept for World Oceans Day was first proposed by the Canadian representatives.
2008 UN declares to recognize World Oceans Day
This year, after a four-year onsite and online petition drive, the UN General Assembly passes a Declaration that will officially recognize the day, beginning the following year.
2009 First World Oceans Day is celebrated
The inaugural World Oceans Day is observed with the theme “Our Oceans, Our Responsibilities.”
2016 World Oceans Day Youth Advisory Council is launched
Made up of 25 youth from all over the world, the Youth Advisory Council is created to develop and promote World Oceans Day.[5]
Why celebrate World Oceans Day?
It’s a good reminder to bring attention to the fact that oceans play a major role in everyday life all around the globe. The oceans provide a majority of the oxygen we breathe, so many consider them to be the lungs of our planet. The goal is to develop a worldwide movement of citizens to care better for the oceans. It’s an opportunity to inform and educate humans and the public of what our actions are doing to the ocean and what impact they have in the long run. It’s not only a day to celebrate the beauty, wealth, and promise of the ocean, but a chance to realize that they’re a critical part of the biosphere. They’re a significant source of food and medicines and simply can’t be ignored or mistreated any longer.
How to celebrate World Oceans Day
Start it off by a visit to the nearest ocean to restore a personal connection to the sea. Breathe deep and appreciate the beauty and serenity the ocean offers each day of the week. Invite family along, and while there, bring information about the ocean and what people really need to know about it to make visiting it a joy for years to come.
Pick a day to go to the ocean to clean up and help restore it instead of simply sitting by it. Gather friends and family and pitch in and pick up trash that surrounds the local beaches and oceans in the area. It’ll not only look nicer, but the wildlife in the area will benefit from these actions as well. Avoid single-use plastics, and instead pack a picnic lunch with reusable containers to enjoy after the hard work is complete. One may also consider organizing a fundraiser to aid preservation and restoration efforts at the local beach. With all the plastic waste coming off our beaches thanks to careless beach-goers, our ocean is awash with litter.
Use this as a time to increase one’s knowledge and explore the topic further. There are a variety of books and resources out there to help a person achieve this goal. Another idea is to gather a group of people and watch an ocean film on the topic to bring awareness to the concept of helping out the oceans.
There are plenty of activities and events that occur on World Oceans Day. Celebrate by choosing one or two to participate in and enjoy. Engage in the day’s events by piggybacking off of other ideas that people in the area have come up with instead of having to think of activities alone.
