"MERMAY" QUOTE 7 OF 9 Wednesday, May 17, 2023

I have been feeling very clearheaded lately and what I want to write about today is the sea. It contains so many colors. Silver at dawn, green at noon, dark blue in the evening. Sometimes it looks almost red. Or it will turn the color of old coins. Right now the shadows of clouds are dragging across it, and patches of sunlight are touching down everywhere. White strings of gulls drag over it like beads.

It is my favorite thing, I think, that I have ever seen. Sometimes I catch myself staring at it and forget my duties. It seems big enough to contain everything anyone could ever feel. - Anthony Doerr, All the Light We Cannot See

MERMAY: OCEAN CONSERVATION QUOTE 10

Wednesday, May 22, 2024

“Balloons used for our entertainment pose a serious danger to wildlife, including marine mammals, seabirds and sea turtles. They can easily be mistaken for food by several marine species, and animals can die from starvation when balloons block their digestive tracts, or when they become entangled in balloon strings.” – Ocean Conservation Society, “Balloon Pollution”

MERMAY: OCEAN CONSERVATION QUOTE 9

Wednesday, May 15, 2024

“There has never been a greater moment for ocean conservation. The links between the health of our global seas and the fight against climate change are strong. More political attention and public and private sector resources are going toward ocean conservation than ever before. And the poverty alleviation, food, and national security communities understand that healthy oceans are mission critical for prosperity and peace—at the community, national, and global levels.” – Johan Bergenas, "A new vision for our oceans"

MERMAY: OCEAN CONSERVATION QUOTE 8

Wednesday, May 15, 2024

Protecting important marine habitat is critical for maintaining healthy oceans and restoring biodiversity. Many marine habitats act as essential fish habitat, acting as a nursery for young fish, providing shelter from predators or acting as a food source. Fisheries managers in many countries are required by law to minimize the impacts of fishing on these areas for the benefit of fisheries and marine life. Marine habitat is also important for other marine creatures, including marine mammals, sea turtles and sharks. Many of these species are keystone species, and the health of their populations is an important indicator of the health of marine ecosystems. Protecting important ocean habitats from destructive fishing practices and pollution protects all marine life, from top predators to tiny zooplankton. – Oceana, "Protecting Important Marine Habitat"

MERMAY: OCEAN CONSERVATION QUOTE 5

Wednesday, May 8, 2024

“Not all mermaids are the shimmering versions of femininity often seen in pop culture. In fact, those mermaids—which seem to be a combination of the Melusine and Greek mythology—barely skim the surface of this fish-human legend. Many countries and culture have their own versions of mermaids, from a snake water goddess to a fish with a monkey mouth. Some are benevolent, some ambivalent, and many are openly hostile to the poor humans who cross their paths.” – Gillian Finklea, "9 Mermaid Legends From Around the World"

"MERMAY" QUOTE 9 OF 9 Wednesday, May 17, 2023

There's nothing wrong with enjoying looking at the surface of the ocean itself, except that when you finally see what goes on underwater, you realize that you've been missing the whole point of the ocean. Staying on the surface all the time is like going to the circus and staring at the outside of the tent. - Dave Barry
