Let’s Begin…
While
the Earth’s oceans are known as five separate entities, there is really
only one ocean. So, how big is it? As of 2013, it takes up 71%
of the Earth, houses 99% of the biosphere, and contains some of Earth’s
grandest geological features. Scott Gass reminds us of the influence
humans have on the ocean and the influence it has on us.
