The ocean generates at least fifty percent of the world’s oxygen, is home to the majority of the planet’s biodiversity, and is the primary source of protein for over a billion people worldwide. In addition, the ocean is essential to our economy, with an estimated 40 million jobs in ocean-based industries by 2030. Despite all its benefits, the ocean now requires assistance.
