    Pam Seaman’s speaks on how TJ’s estuary is very important because its the second estuary in California and one of 18 in the country. He quotes, “ discharges of untreated wastewater in the estuary raise nutrients to levels that deplete dissolved oxygen that cause eutrophication.” Some treatment to eliminate wastewater problems has helped but there is still more thats needed. People have become so accustomed to danger signs from contaminated waters that they fail to recognize them as a threat.

    In the viewfind of my camera, I had at last framed the one thing that I most longed to photograph, a live, in captivity lemon shark. Tangerine looked at me with suspicious, yet curious eyes, no doubt wondering why I smelled of fish, as the water was tinted a slight red. Tangerine was a stunning, powerful creature, of 11 years old, about halfway through his lifespan. Since he was a lemon shark, he had a pale, yet vibrant shade of a soft mustard that had been mixed with a softer, sandy color, which is what it felt like to roll my hand on the left side as he circled me for the fish I had in my pocket, his flesh was squishy like slime, but also had a sandy feeling to it. Lemon sharks in captivity have a lesser brightness to the shade of yellow…

    Making himself credible, Stewart made sure to inform the audience that he has a degree in Biology and is also a professional underwater diver and photographer. In crediting himself, this lets the audience believe that he is correct about the biological facts about sharks and the ocean that he presents throughout the documentary. To provide further credibility for himself and the documentary, Stewart has numerous biologists and shark experts to speak on behalf of shark behavior and cruelty. For example, to credit his claim that sharks do not harm humans often or on purpose, Stewart has a shark behaviorist speak about how rare shark attacks really are, and that they only bite people out of curiosity, not to do any real harm or to “eat” the person. With having a biologist that specializes in sharks support Stewart’s facts and main points, this makes the documentary much more believable and credible.…

    In the article, "Repelling Germs with Sharkskin" written by Esther Landhuis, it discusses the benefits of sharkskin for humans. As the article unfolds, you will see a scientist named Anthony Brennan, inventor of the sharkskin texture, realized many marine animals have "crusty" skin due to the buildup of algae and barnacle. This prompted him to wonder what the skin was made up and why it was so different than other animals. The scientists soon found a process that helped them find what the skin was made up of. However the author does not effectively support the claim that sharkskin has the potential to help humans.…

    Sand dune erosion is occurring on the Cronulla coastline due to the coupling of human and natural impacts and is gradually resulting in the beach being less able to be protect itself from natural implications. The constant sand dune erosion is creating a steeper slope this is allowing waves and winds to rapidly remove sand from the dunes. The sand dune erosion is destroying habitats from plants and animals, this is substantially decreasing the biodiversity on the coastal environment. Sand dune erosion is resulting in loose sand to be blown from the dunes because the vegetation has been removed, this is impacting the coastal environment as it is removing all vegetation causing a significant reduction in the biodiversity which is also disrupting the natural processes for the coastal ecosystem. As the sand dunes are eroding since the waves and winds are removing the sand from the shore, the loss of sand results in the beach becoming narrower and closer to the residents.…

    My TEDtalk is about sharks and bees, animals that should not be feared and that humans need to stop killing. Both are important to the ecosystem, and without them, the world would be much worse off. Bees are disappearing, and without them, Earth is in trouble. Bees are responsible for most of the flowers and fruit that humans enjoy. They spread pollen so plants can reproduce.…

    The great white shark: the king of ocean, the evil ruler, destroying everything in it’s path. From the looks of them, it would be understandable to make this assumption.

    “ I couldn’t possibly write Jaws today at least, not in a good conscience anyway,” said Peter Benchley, the author of Jaws. On the other hand, all sharks are different from each other, just like the saying “no two snowflakes are the same” I think it’s the same with sharks no two sharks are the same. However, sharks make me think because they all have their own different identities and none are exactly the same and I wish to have a baby shark sometime in my lifetime. Better yet, I would want a great white shark and when it gets big enough that it won't fit in a fish tank I will take it to the ocean and it can have free reign of which aquatic animals it wants to eat and which ones it doesn’t want to eat. Great white sharks are very unique.…
