Ocean acidification - the excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that is turning the oceans increasingly acid - is a slow but accelerating impact with consequences that will greatly overshadow all the oil spills put together. The warming trend that is CO2-related will overshadow all the oil spills that have ever occurred put together.

Use your power to do whatever it takes to secure for humankind an enduring place on this little blue speck in the universe - our only hope.

The ocean is dying, and we have no place to escape to if this experiment doesn't go in our favor.

I hope that someday we will find evidence that there is intelligent life among humans on this planet.

We have the capacity to alter the nature of nature. No, we don't have just the capacity - we are altering the nature of nature, the natural systems that cause the planet to function in our favor.

If the sea is sick, we'll feel it. If it dies, we die. Our future and the state of the oceans are one.

Knowledge is the key to making a difference.
