It is estimated that 80 percent of all life on Earth exists beneath the oceans' waters. Not only do these waters provide a vital food source for humans, but they also create over half our oxygen, dictate weather patterns, and keep the planet livable. Unfortunately, human activity is quickly diminishing the state of our global oceans and the species that live there. According to a report done by Greenpeace International, the key threats people pose on the fate of our global oceans are: industrial fishing, bycatch, unfair fisheries, unsustainable aquaculture, global warming or climate change, and pollution.
