On June 8th, people from all over the world celebrate the world oceans day<\/strong>, because of its importance in our lives.<\/p>\n It is a very important part of our world and primordial for all species. The planet Earth is a compound of water in three quarters, and of these, the oceans, in volume, have the greatest dimension. Our seas and the oceans from the most extensive amount of water in the world<\/strong>, it covers more than seventy percent of the surface of the planet. There are five different oceans: the Arctic Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and the Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n Each one of us can protect our oceans in our daily activities, no matter where we live; We all must protect it. Our oceans are a resource on which we all depend<\/strong>. Is also, indispensable for the creation of life and is essential for the survival of human beings.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/cruisetogalapagos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/A-dreaming-trip-to-the-galapagos-islands-featured.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.0″ _module_preset=”default” alt=”traveleres and galapagos marine tortoises” title_text=”A-dreaming-trip-to-the-galapagos-islands-featured” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.6.0″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” hover_enabled=”0″ text_text_color=”#000000″ text_orientation=”justified” sticky_enabled=”0″ header_2_font=”|700||on|||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_font_size=”21px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.1em”] The oceans perform a wide range of functions that allow and promote the existence of all the species<\/strong>;\u00a0 above all that of human beings.<\/p>\n First, they are a source of biological food resources through which billions of people around the world can support themselves<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In addition, they represent a source of raw materials that have different industrial or commercial uses.<\/p>\n Third, the oceans are an important energy resource thanks to maritime movements and underwater currents that produce renewable energy.<\/p>\n On the other hand, the oceans serve as a regulator of the climate<\/strong>. They absorb the excess heat of the planet and regulate the effects of climate change. Also, they exchange gases with the atmosphere.<\/p>\n Bearing in mind that a large part of the world population lives in coastal areas, the oceans generate labor and economic resources in tasks related to the sea<\/strong>, based on fishing, industry, commerce, and tourism.<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/cruisetogalapagos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/10-keys-for-a-season-trip-on-galapagos-featured.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.0″ _module_preset=”default” alt=”galapagos sea lions on the beach” title_text=”10-keys-for-a-season-trip-on-galapagos-featured” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.6.0″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” hover_enabled=”0″ text_text_color=”#000000″ text_orientation=”justified” sticky_enabled=”0″ header_2_font=”|700||on|||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_font_size=”21px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.1em”] Each year, countries and organizations mark June 8th<\/strong> as an opportunity to celebrate our personal connection to the sea. This concept was promoted for the first time at the Earth Summit<\/a><\/strong> in Rio de Janeiro in 1992.<\/p>\n But it was not until 2008 that the United Nations adopted it in a resolution in December.
