Competition to Design an ocean research center: Oceana – Raising awareness through a Marine Center

The threat to marine ecosystems
The planet earth is made up of land, sea, weather, and life forms. The variability in form across the planet has created different types of habitats with characteristic features and life forms. Of these, water habitats occupy 75% of the Earth’s surface.
The presence of water makes our planet, one-of-its-kind, and is responsible for regulating the life cycle on Earth. These large bodies of water contain a unique ecosystem and diverse, marine life that predates humankind.The evolution of humans over time, led to them adapting and settling in multiple habitats over time. But as a side-effect of our extreme pursuits of progress, actions taken by humans have had a negative implication on their surrounding environments. Since all habitats are linked and interdependent, the degradation of one will have devastating effects on all the other ecosystems and their well-being.How can we iterate the repercussions of human activity in time to conserve nature?
