I recently came across a site for Christopher Swain–he is an Environmental hero in my book. He swims in dirty water to promote clean water! Check it out: changents.com/earthkeepers

Good point, goodgreenliving. In the original post (at http://www.thereeftank.com/blog/water-world/ ) In noted a suggestion to write to representatives, but – you’re right – I think a deeper level of consideration is needed regarding our oceans.

R Margolis – That’s very interesting. It’s certainly one of the less talked about issues of climate change, despite it actually being quite a massive one.

Thank you both for reading.

It was actually the carbonic acid data on the oceans (including the bleaching of coral reefs) that convinced me the carbon issue was real. We need to have a greater awareness of how our oceans are affected.

The recent conference in Indonesia may make a difference to events at Copenhagen. I wonder if it may be worth asking your readers to contact their minister and ask them to put pressure on the next Copenhagen summit to consider OCEANS as well as CO2 filled skies?
