Just as a penny drive can produce vast monetary rewards, young people are asked to help save the world’s oceans and in turn the human population on Earth. All of Earth’s water flows in the water cycle. “The water cycle is the constant movement of water between the ocean, the land and Earth’s atmosphere…”(6) All of Earth’s oceans are connected. The oceans are in danger from carbon dioxide, warming waters, acidification, pollution, plastic, and overfishing. No matter where you live on earth you can help the ocean (and the earth in doing so) by doing something to help alleviate one or more of these problems.

In addition to HELP SAVE THE GLOBAL OCEANS propaganda (of the positive kind), there are eight insets entitled “Ripples of Change” telling of actions that are already taking place. There are six pages of “Waves of Change” to help the reader choose a starting point for them to beginning helping our planet.
