Why the ocean important?

Answer 1

3 words.

Fish and chips.

Answer 2

O.K, someone put "because it is some animal's habitat" and that isn't acceptable.

The ocean isn't just supporting marine life, it supports our life. It's the largest water source in the world, providing almost all of our rain. You like fish, crab, lobster? You wouldn't be able to enjoy these tasty foods if it wasn't for the ocean. And don't even get me started on water pollution and how it could kill every animal in the sea! Plastic bags, for instance, to a hungry sea turtle it's going to look like a jellyfish (and yes they eat jelly fish.) And the mangroves! The mangroves are the things standing between you and tsunami's. The ocean does so many things for us the explanations on why it's important go on forever.

One last thing. The ocean needs help. Go outside and look at the ocean, or the beach even. Try and count how much trash you see. Now this is different for private beaches or beaches that people are payed to clean up. Styrofoam cups, and coolers, don't EVER decompose. Same thing with plastics. Some do decompose but it takes almost 1,000 years. Which is almost equivalent to 111 human lives. Please, I know you may not belive it but just double checking to see if you've picked up all of your trash after a beach party will do so much. It's little things like that that will save the oceans.

Earth Oceans are so important is because life depends on 2 basic things water and air
