The Challenge
        
        The Vastness of the Oceans 
         As climate change disrupts the world's oceans, the behavior of marine life is evolving in response to these shifting conditions.
          
our current methods of exploration are struggling to keep up with these changes, leaving us in the dark about the lives and behaviors of marine species.
          
Current methods of ocean exploration, often reliant on robots or intrepid divers, have brought us a wealth of data. However, this deluge of information has led to a pressing problem—an overwhelming backlog of unprocessed data.
        
        
          
            
              
                Pollution
                 The United Nations estimates that approximately 8 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the oceans every year.
               
             
            
              
                Overfishing
                 The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reports that about 33% of global fish stocks are being harvested at unsustainable levels. Overfishing not only disrupts marine ecosystems but also poses a significant threat to the livelihoods of millions of people worldwide who depend on fishing as a primary source of income and sustenance.

Change
                
                 Climate change is undeniably transforming the world's oceans at an unprecedented pace, leading to a myriad of alarming changes and challenges.

                 Habitat Loss
                 The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) suggests that the degradation of seagrass beds and coral reefs is directly linked to the decline in biodiversity, with an estimated loss of habitat impacting approximately 25% of marine species globally.
