JAcques Cousteau has done a lot to educate the world regarding the ocean.  And he started it many years ago.

7th generation makes a very good line of cleaning products that are all very healthy for the earth.  (I know target sells them)

Air Pollution (smoke...)\nWater Pollution (oil spills, garbage)\nPollution on Land (garbage....)\n\nOil spills in the ocean are very difficult to deal with because it requires alot of work to clean up as the ocean is so vast and the oil spreads quickly.  It is also very difficult to deal with because alot of organisms die in the ocean from the oil before it is able to be cleaned up.

No...besides the environmentalist would think we are trying to dump oil into the oceans when you compare it to the Boston Tea party...\n\nwhy not drill in Anwar

There's oil under the water. I am not sure how oil is made, I assume it has to do with the fossils of animals - in this case mammals, fish, and plants.

I feel biodegradable detergents are good for the environment.  I like the coconut-based ones best, particularly the shampoos.

large scale dumping of waste from industrial areas, oil spill, hot water discharged from industries and power plants, and hm...hunting of vulnerable marine species, destruction of coral reefs..for ornamental purposes..etc

Did the oil companies destroy the environment?  Really?  The environment is destroyed?  Have you been to eastern Europe?  I have, and let me tell you, our environment is not even close to being destroyed.  The environments over there are WAY worse off than they are here, and guess what?  All that destruction was done by their governments under communism (not by 'greedy' companies)!  And who do you think is driving the oil industry anyway?  Everyone who buys fuel, or anything made out of plastic or other oil products, or buys something shipped with oil burning methods is driving it.  You need to learn some basic economics and think about things holistically to see the real forces that drive things.  Good luck with that.\nOur judicial system will never be cleaned up as long as it has so much power.  It is a law of nature that power attracts the corrupt.  If you want a judicial system that is corruption free, you need to drastically reduce its power over the people.  Most people look at government and its branches as a benevolent big brother rather than the necessary evil that great men like Ben Franklin and Jefferson did.  The bigger and more powerful it gets, the more corrupt it will get, period.

John Snow.  He is famous for tracing a cholera epidemic to the Broad Street Pump, which he then broke the handle off.\nFor more information:\nhttp://www.ph.ucla.edu/epi/snow.html

Depends on what species of seal you are talking about. Generally speaking, mankind has killed the ocean by means of pollution and fishing, and every mammal species living in the ocean is endangered.

Both......Large and in charge with the motion of the ocean!\nGive me the best of both worlds!

You can study this topic for an entire semester in a college class!  I did, and it cannot be explained in a few words.  \n\nWhat people are doing is changing the face of the earth and in the process we are destroying the places other creatures and plants live.  In our mad pursuit of things and riches and greed, we do whatever we want to get our way.\n\nIndustries make garbage, some of it is lethal, some is liquid.... guess where many liquids go?  Into streams. In my country, the USA, there are laws against such waste going into streams, but guess what?  Many companies dump their waste anyway because it's quick and easy.  Multiply this dumping around the world....\n\nDo you, as a citizen, consider how you pollute just by what you have in your own house?  \n\nNow, tying all of the above into marine ecosystems:   Streams run down hill. Ultimately, pollutants wind up in the oceans.  Businesses along coastlines often dump their wastes directly into the ocean.   \n\nIn our mindless pursuit of material possessions, we import a massive amount of material from poor nations where labor is cheap and pollution is rampant (few or no environmental protection laws in many poor nations).  The goods come via the ocean on huge, polluting ships. Those ships flush their sewage into the sea. They enter harbors and dump their wastes and that waste carries all sorts of things in it.  Some of that waste includes little sea living organisms that are native to waters halfway around the world, and those organisms start interfering with the new location where they got dumped.\n\nOver fishing?  Catch too many fish and the numbers decline. Not enough mama fish to lay eggs. Polluted waters make breeding more difficult.  Most fish live in shallow waters, and shallow waters are usually near land. People pollute the waters where they live... so we harvest the fish, we pollute the water, and the fish can't reproduce fast enough.\n\nAdd to the mix oil... oil spills, and runoff, and all the many things we make from petroleum... \n\nEarth is one big organism, and all of it's parts work together. People think to rule the earth and change it and ultimately, we most likely will kill the earth and most of it's creatures from our pursuit of things and our lack of controlling the horribly toxic wastes our factories make.

He was the first to come up with a good system of classifying all life on earth. His system, with variations, is still in wide use today. \n\nVery Important Person to scientists!
