Monday's Blog- 5 Reasons to Study the Ocean

Five reasons for why it's important to study the ocean is (in my opinion):

1. To understand where our resources come from and to how to preserve them. Things like fish, oil, and the importance of the sea food chain.  

2. Our future could soon rely on the ocean, it's not all the way explored and some possibly important minerals could be hiding below the ocean floor.

3. To understand how the ocean affects our weather and climate and how they change.

4.  There are probably thousands of shipwrecks just waiting to be explored, so the ocean is like a big underwater museum waiting to be discovered. 

5. To understand plate tectonics and the continental drift.
