open your eyes
open your eyes that second breast that we all took
that second breast that we all took
that second breast that we all took together came to us from the oceans so
together came to us from the oceans so

conversation about the importance of oceans there that they fill our lungs
oceans there that they fill our lungs
oceans there that they fill our lungs with oxygen that every other breath we
with oxygen that every other breath we
with oxygen that every other breath we take comes from the sea but not only do
take comes from the sea but not only do
take comes from the sea but not only do the oceans provide oxygen for us fill
the oceans provide oxygen for us fill
the oceans provide oxygen for us fill our lungs they also fill our stomachs
our lungs they also fill our stomachs
our lungs they also fill our stomachs and they fill our wallets we can look at
and they fill our wallets we can look at

some of those other values too for the
some of those other values too for the oceans so food the oceans are
oceans so food the oceans are
oceans so food the oceans are essentially a refrigerator full of some
essentially a refrigerator full of some
essentially a refrigerator full of some of the most nutritious free-range food
of the most nutritious free-range food
of the most nutritious free-range food on our planet now I and other colleagues
on our planet now I and other colleagues
on our planet now I and other colleagues and research sat down and we looked at
and research sat down and we looked at
and research sat down and we looked at exactly how many people depend on
exactly how many people depend on
exactly how many people depend on seafood and it turns out that 845
seafood and it turns out that 845
seafood and it turns out that 845 million people on our planet are kept
million people on our planet are kept
million people on our planet are kept just one step ahead of diseases
just one step ahead of diseases
just one step ahead of diseases associated with malnutrition as a result
associated with malnutrition as a result
associated with malnutrition as a result of access to seafood what that sort of
of access to seafood what that sort of
of access to seafood what that sort of boils down to a cost our planet is that
boils down to a cost our planet is that
boils down to a cost our planet is that a lot of people out there are facing a

a lot of people out there are facing a future where they either have fish and
future where they either have fish and
future where they either have fish and rice for dinner or simply rice for
rice for dinner or simply rice for
rice for dinner or simply rice for dinner so it’s incredibly important that
dinner so it’s incredibly important that
dinner so it’s incredibly important that we get that food and that nutrition keep
we get that food and that nutrition keep
we get that food and that nutrition keep coming to us from the ocean’s wealth so
coming to us from the ocean’s wealth so
coming to us from the ocean’s wealth so the oceans if you were to consider them
the oceans if you were to consider them
the oceans if you were to consider them a country would have the seventh largest

billions and billions of data points
billions and billions of data points that were coming off sensors from

vessels that were roaming our oceans and then we filtered out exactly which boats
then we filtered out exactly which boats
then we filtered out exactly which boats were fishing and figured out where they
were fishing and figured out where they
were fishing and figured out where they were fishing and we plotted that and
were fishing and we plotted that and

that’s what this is this is pretty neat
that’s what this is this is pretty neat for marine biologists because it’s like
