Human impacts
Humans have had a HUGE impact on the ocean. some positive impacts include. people trying to help clean the ocean.Also some more people are trying to save sea animals from extinction.Some negative impacts include. People are hunting whales. Also People are polluting the ocean!!!!!!!!!!!I think they should start cleaning the ocean.I think this because all of peoples life's are at steak because plankton is part of the life cycle and we will die if plankton goes extinct.
The history of the ocean is that that the Titanic sunk in the ocean and kill about over 3,000 people died.Also in the Gulf of Mexico two oil rigs blew up and its hurting the animals especially baby sea turtles .In the ocean they are doing tourist traps in the oceans and it kills the coral reefs.
