One Ocean, One Climate, One Future
World Oceans Day was yesterday (June 8) but I didn't remember/find out until today. Bad ocean lover/conservator, I know. In order to rectify my lack of appropriate posting yesterday, I'm giving today's entry to World Ocean's Day. I won't even do an Unrelatedly segment about hockey and how, if the Pens lose tonight, it'll be like this season was pointless because the end result was the same as last year, and who (besides cephalopod throwing twerps) really wants that??
This year's World Ocenas Day theme is (was) One Ocean, One Climate, One Future. The Ocean Project and the World Ocean Network have been working together to organize World Oceans Day since 1993. It wasn't until this year that June 8th became the date that the UN recognizes for World Oceans Day. No excuses now if I forget next year!
Check out the Marine Photobank website for pictures from all over the world. You can even enter their Ocean in Focus: Conservation Photography Contest
Become a Citizen of the Ocean
Driving home from dinner last night, sky looked like the Carribean Sea. Various shades of blue and turquoise and teal. It was amazing and beauitful and somehow I managed not to run any lights or hit anything. Helps that there weren't many folks out at 21:00.
