The Collaborative Post included much discussion of crisis happening in the oceans and planet due to climate change and pollution. Appreciating and relating to other life and wonders of our shared planet are an integral part of where we came from and how we literally survive. From nature we get the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat. Stewarding our shared environment is essential for our survival. Participants did research on Climate Change affecting the oceans and planet, and discussed imagery and quotes to inspire conservation.
