World Oceans Week Canada – June 8th is World Oceans Day

VANCOUVER, May 25, 2012 /CNW/ – June 8th is World Oceans Day; around the
world we celebrate and honour our oceans, taking action to protect our
vital oceans and marine life. Oceans generate 80% of the oxygen we
breathe.

The theme this year is Youth, the Next Wave for Change. World Oceans Day Canada (WODC) urges you to conserve water, reduce
emissions, protect our waterways and keep all our shorelines clean.

WODC encourages community leaders, teachers, youth leaders and members
of existing NGO’s to work together to plan an annual event in their
community next year. Local Media and community billboards will
facilitate this by posting public service announcements (PSA) free.

Together we can make a difference, now and for the future. For more
