The oceans, and the challenges they face, are so vast that
it’s easy to feel powerless to protect them. 50 Ways to Save
the Ocean, written by veteran environmental journalist David
Helvarg, focuses on practical, easily-implemented actions
everyone can take to protect and conserve this vital
resource. Well-researched, personal, and sometimes
whimsical, the book addresses daily choices that affect the
ocean's health: what fish should and should not be eaten;
how and where to vacation; storm drains and driveway
run-off; protecting local water tables; proper diving,
surfing, and tide pool etiquette; and supporting local
marine education. Helvarg also looks at what can be done to
stir the waters of seemingly daunting issues such as toxic
pollutant runoff; protecting wetlands and sanctuaries;
keeping oil rigs off shore; saving reef environments; and
replenishing fish reserves.
