Happy World Ocean Day

Water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to drink....a saying that sums up this salty, watery planet of ours.  At about 71% of our planet, we're "blue" for a reason--the oceans abound, rich with wildlife.

June 8th annually is World Ocean's Day.
This year's annual theme:  "Together we have the power to protect the ocean!"


Check out some of the many great things you can do to celebrate World Oceans day by way of learning, appreciating, and honoring that 71% that surrounds us over at http://worldoceansday.org/.  It's a super stopping spot for resources!

Then be sure to take part in a World Ocean's Day Scavenger Hunt over at ARKive.org

Find some great oceanic, hands-on, educational activities here.

Take the time to see what you can do!!  Marine animals everywhere will thank you!
