Shaping the beaches, mountains, skies and the underworld of the world's oceans, water has both quietly and with dramatic force shaped our earth and the way we experience it. Not only important to marine and aquatic life, the oceans drive and support local, state and national economies through healthy fisheries, tourism, transportation, support services, and materials needed to support growing populations such as here along the Oregon oceanfront. This can only be sustained with a healthy ocean.
