Text:

Pollution is a major phenomenon that is destructing all the different parts of our environment.
The oceans of the world are suffering from a dangerous decrease in vitality. Before 1977, we thought that the greatest danger came from chemical pollution. But we began to realize that the drop in animals which feed upon the oceans was much bigger than could be explained by chemical pollution alone.
