Today is World Oceans Day
- "The concept for a “World Ocean Day” was first proposed in 1992 by the Government of Canada at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. Starting in 2002, The Ocean Project began to promote and coordinate this event globally. The World Oceans Day theme for 2017 is "Our Oceans, Our Future." The main conservation focus is on plastic pollution prevention and cleaning the ocean of marine litter." - excerpts from World Oceans Day website.
