Shipping and maritime traffic can harm our oceans in several ways:
Pollution: Ships use a lot of dirty fuel, which releases harmful gases and chemicals into the air and water.
Loss of Marine Life: Ship collisions and loud noises can scare and harm ocean animals.
Invasive Species: When ships take on water for balance, they can accidentally carry harmful creatures to new places.
To help protect our oceans, we can try:
Making stricter rules for shipping companies.
Investing in cleaner technologies that pollute less.
Creating special areas in the ocean where marine life can thrive safely.
But for these solutions to work, we need strong political support and countries to work together.
