We live on a blue planet
Watch the UN World Oceans Day 2023 video (2 minutes).
In the middle part of the video the author asks 4 rhetorical questions:
How do we know more about the vastness of the universe than we do the depths of our own planet’s beating heart?
What worlds could exist beneath the surface?
What damage have we done that we’re yet to see?
How do we justify devastating what we’re yet to discover?
Ask yourself one of the questions. Look at the associated images. Share your thoughts with another person.
