already caused and to prevent further disaster.
Some major problems facing our oceans include
marine pollution, overfishing, and the significant loss
of marine species. More frightening, experts say, is the

and heat is helping to slow down climate change on
land; however, it is also destroying the natural chemical
balance of the water. Environmentalists fear that these
changes could even wipe out sea life.
