Second installment of the OCEAN-o-MANIA series.
Here, the intricate relationship between humanity and the mighty forces of nature takes center stage, as we question our ability to confront the repercussions of our actions. It addresses the fundamental equation of progress and sustainability, highlighting the challenges that persist in achieving a balance between human advancement and environmental preservation, beginning by explaining the very essence of 'Nature'.
Exploring the pressing issue of plastic dumping in Asian waters, this book delves into the role of individuals in this global challenge. With a keen eye on accountability, it calls for a closer examination of the origins of oceanic waste, particularly focusing on nations contributing to the proliferation of non-biodegradable materials, such as plastic.
Without explicit mention, the crux of the book will, as the name points towards, will be Oceans.
An intriguing/complex area of 360 Million Square Kilometers on Earth; otherwise simply known as Oceans, possesses the 'MIGHT' to sustain life. Being one of the biggest components of nature, Oceans, perhaps equate with the smooth running of Earth's operations. Still, neither their potency nor importance is acknowledged.
Our actions have led to extensive destruction, not only of the water bodies themselves but also endangering biodiversity and marine life. This disruption extends to the intricate food chains within the oceans, resulting in surprising consequences that affect the very ecosystems they sustain.
Researched with nativity and care, this compendium offers a comprehensive look at the challenges facing our planet's vast aquatic realms. This is my small contribution as a student deeply passionate about environmental issues.Drawing from esteemed sources such as The Guardian, WWF, Reuters, Forbes, Ocean Conservancy, "OCEAN-o-MANIA" emerges as a meticulously researched compendium. With infographics, personal insights, and a holistic approach to the subject matter, this book serves as an attempt to call to action.
- Authored by a passionate Ocean Maniac, this book aims to educate and redirect attention to the neglected realm of nature: the oceans. It sheds light on the urgent need for humanity to take action to protect these vital ecosystems.
I've endeavored to keep the content visually engaging and accessible, even for those who may find non-fiction reading tedious, by incorporating vibrant imagery alongside concise text. Therefore, as mentioned in the book as well, I am truly grateful to the Balochistani photographers who sent in their work and collaborated with me on this book!
