We also take food and resources from oceans. All these activities can have harmful effects on the oceans and the creatures that live in them. Overfishing and pollution are the most common problems. Oceans link countries all over the world; seawater circulates around the globe, so what we do in one part of the ocean can affect another. Overfishing In parts of the world, fishing boats with huge nets sometimes take too many of the same species of fish from a small area, causing some ocean water to be overfished. As a result, there are not enough fish left to breed in these areas. This affects other fish in the food chain, and it affects people because there eventually may not be enough fish to eat. In some parts of the world, limits have been set for the number of fish to be caught at one time. Threats to Marine Life Some species of marine creatures are now rare because too many have been killed for food or sport. Tropical islands and coasts with coral reefs also attract large numbers of tourists every year. Indeed, this helps people develop an understanding of marine life. However, coral and shellfish can be destroyed by heavy boats. Divers, who stay under water just for fun or to hunt for souvenirs, are disturbing the natural cycles of marine life. Pollution One of the biggest threats to oceans is pollution from industry. Most pollution happens in coastal areas. In fact, many coastal cities and ports are reported to have long been polluted by chemicals and other harmful things from heavy industries. The industries dump these materials into the nearby rivers, which then wash them into the sea. Once
