Ocean Wonders and Coastal Life Basics
The text highlights oceans covering 70 percent of Earth, containing 98 percent of global water, and hosting living spaces near coasts. It notes US coastal proximity, offshore oil and gas shares, and oceans influencing weather patterns and rainfall for agriculture.
Runoff Pollution Threatens Oceans and Wildlife
Runoff pollution from rainwater and melting snow carries fertilizers, lawn chemicals, road salt, oil, gasoline, and untreated sewage into streams and bays. This triggers eutrophication, rapid algae growth that depletes oxygen and kills fish, while emitting foul odors and harming ecosystems.
