Aquatic Eco Systems

1. I would describe the health of the aquatic ecosystems as poor and not cared enough about.

2. Bug gane fishing and trash are being dumped into the aquatic ecosystems everyday.
3. My personal connection is I require on these oceans for life. Not only drinking water but oxygen and many other things.
4. Humans play the role of a destructor in this biosphere. We are destroying the natural habitat and the long term effects are not good.
5.Yes I feel like they understand but the stupendous people of the major countries dont care. For instance Madagascar may care alot about the ocean but if they cut back their waste it wouldnt do much but if America did it would be amazing. Yet the careless America doesnt feel like it.
