Rio Summit: Critical Issues  

OCEANS
Oceans are one of the Earth’s most valuable natural resources. They comprise about 71% of the Earth’s surface and are incalculably an important aspect of all forms of life on the mighty planet.

Ocean and seas play an important role in keeping a check and regulating the environment by removing carbon from the atmosphere and providing oxygen. They are also an enormous source of biomedical organisms which help in fighting many diseases. Not just this, oceans are an important source of fishing, mining, transportation etc.

So, it is essential to protect this global natural resource for a sustainable future.
