TED Prize 2009 Sylvia Earle: My wish: Protect our oceans

TED Prize 2009 Sylvia Earle: My wish: Protect our oceans (script)
Summary
I also know that seeing swimming fish attracts people in the sea. They don't know that they are eaten by people. In the beautiful oceans, we can touch and swim with them. However, our oceans are harmed by what we put into it or by what we took out of it where all the assets are. It means that not only fish can't swim there but also we can't live on our Earth where we live now. With every drop of water we drink but every breath we take connected to the sea. No matter where on Earth we live. Most of the oxygen in the atmosphere is generated by the sea. Over time, most of the planet's organic carbon is cleaned by microbes. The ocean drives climate and weather, stabilizes temperature, and shapes Earth's chemistry. Water from the sea forms clouds that return to the land and the seas as rain and snow, and it provides our home for about 97 percent of life in the world.
No water means no life but the oceans have lost their own resilience. You think that our earth has its power that doesn't matter what we do, is wrong.
Now technologies are helping us to understand what is happening and what is our impact on the Earth. We have to know the problems more to make the Earth an enduring place. The speaker works to identify critical places of our Earth. Now is the time to protect our oceans.
